This story goes out to Eli Roth... get the tissues!

Published at:  Mar 12, 2004 7:43:36 AM CST

Hey folks, Harry here... ya know... Somewhere in this wide world Eli Roth is crying... This was his dream project... only, if he could add a monkey. And frankly, after watching the trailer... the shot with one of the Olsen Twins naked in a dumpster... wouldn't that scene be better with a Monkey? And when that dude looks at them and says, "Twins" with all the awe that Keanu put into "ON" in JOHNNY MNEMONIC... well, this has classic written no where on it. NOW - if only the Olsen Twins starred in the BAYWATCH 3D movie, and it starts with them getting the gig and feeling undersized... it then becomes a film based upon the wacky padding of bikinis to "fit in"! Don't you think they would double their financial fortune if they made an NC-17 Paul Verhoeven film called SISTERLY LOVE? But only if they both fell in love with a character played by Eric Roberts - who then sells them to Mickey Rourke. Of course - maybe Eli should do that one. Hmmm...

    in Oakville, Ontario.....Canada. I was excited to get a notice in the mailbox saying they were filming in the neighborhood. It said they were filming "New York Minute, starring some of hollywood's hottest young stars." You can imagine my delight when it turned out to be the freakin Olsen twins.

  • Quit shitting on this movie because it doesn't fall within your interest. People who make a living out of deciding what does and does not get made might know a little better than you about it. I'm sure we're all very impressed with how high-brow your standards are and with your biting cynicism. Now why don't you shut the fuck up and either see the film or watch the box office because I bet the film pulls in money, as well as being entertaining for those of us who like variety in our film consumption. To me, this looks like it's being aimed more at the boys and men who lust after the Olson twins than the girls who made them billionairs.

    Because that trailer has a whole lot of Olsen Twins in towels, implied nudity, three up skirt shots, and so many legs... crap... I mean, I aggree totally that they should market themselves as sex objects, but I thought that up till now they were trying to be good yound teen role-models. What's this rated, someone?

    by rev_skarekroe

    I'm kidding, of course, but "Cabin Fever" was really awful. Points to ponder - it's amazing how that one twin's towel stays on the whole time, even when running down the street or falling in an elevator. And why are they so afraid of the truant officer (deftly played by Eugene "Anything For A Paycheck" Levy)? All their parents have to do is threaten to sue the school and they graduate with honors. And do you think they regret putting Jack Osbourne in this now that his 15 minute egg-timer has run out? And finally, what do you think the ratio of 15 year old girls to disturbing older men will be at screenings of this film? I wanna know! sk

    Who's that cracker?

    by led gopher

    So it's okay for black people to call white people "crackers" and even more ok for it to be used in a comedy meant for young kids?
    A whole new generation of racial tension begins.
    Good to see the twins are sexing themselves up more and more the closer they get to turning 18.
    So much for taking the "high road" and not bending to appeal to the masses. Oh well bring on the Playboy shoot, you know it will make all the horny crackers who like young girls buy 2 issues of the magazine at least.
    In any case, this does look like it could be a fun movie to watch at home, alone, in the dark. Not because I'm spanking it, but bceause Eugene Levy and Andy Richter are funny guys... but the Olsen twins? Do you really want to admit you are 25 y/o and watching an Olsen twins movie?

    Why post this trailer here? Not sure I understand - see, to ME and others like me (by which I mean all of you) - this movie is absolutely stupid. An abysmal looking movie with small pockets of Eugene Levy mercy. Yet this movie is not FOR me. It is not FOR you! This movie is for young female tweens in middle america. Do they not deserve a movie Harry? Must every movie be about a surly anti-hero fighting crime in his underwear? No. I do not hate Raffi or Sharon Lois and Bram. So I will not hate this. I won't go see it. (That would be silly - my eyes would bleed and explode while my eardrums packed up the winnebago and drove to vegas without me) But I will not succumb to the hate!

    Look dude, I applaud anybody who can get any sort of success in this industry, as we all know it's not an easy feat to accomplish, but here's the bottom line: cabin fever was an uninspired mess of a movie. would this be ok if it was entertaining? yes. was it entertaining? no, not for this poster. his unflinching devotion to sam raimi, and tobe hooper among others was mildly embarassing. he can name all his extras "shemp" as much he wants, but he's going to have to venture a little farther beyond USC film student mania to make something worthwhile in my book, and i truly hope he does, i don't wish failure on anybody.

It tends to be a start to up in coming careers. The fact that Eli wants to stick with it is admirable.

    Well it's seems that for once I agree with a mojority of the posters here. I hated Cabin Fever and think that Eli Roth's praise is completly unfounded (not to say that I don't want it to be founded, he just hasn't done anything that deserves praise). This site has become a joke. No news. Nothing but links to traliers for tweens, with the Olsen Twins and a Simple Plan. I'd rather have my eyes poked out than sit through that film. Harry is a sell out. He tells us what the big companys pay him to tell us. And is to much of a pussy to step on any ones toes and report shit that he should. Fuck you Harry, for this trailer, and for the way your treating the loyal fans who've come to this site for ever and have made you rich and famous.

They are under-developed, wear too much makeup, and I just can't shake their annoying baby-talk from Full House from my head. I hated them when they were babies, and I hate them even more now.

    by unclefishbits


    To get your attention.... the love hate thing that Eli Roth has become is increibly interesting.... as someone posted recently, we are in geekboy heaven... in a fay and age where almost anythign can get shot. They just greenlit every fantasy film from here to kingdom come. Cabin Fever was a first film like Kelly's Donnie Darko. Darko fell into cult status immediately, and hit the cultural pulse of the audience at that time.... as did Cabin fever... but with a lot more fallout. Cabin fever was a fun deconstuction of a stereotypical teenage film, and turn into a film aggressively battling its desire to remain simple. If you watch the documentary in the extra footage, I think you will see that. It never attempted to usurp the position of cult horror masterpiece. It was simply a first film a nice, fun guy was lucky enough to get made. You ungrateful bastards should be crucified. Or forced to withstand the evil Volkror's method of kick-fucking.

    Cabin Fever was a boring, unimginative, trying to be funny but isn't, trying to be cool cult horror but isn't, teen movie. God, I barley even see any differance between Cabin Fever and I Know What You Did Last summer. It was no smarter, no cooler, no more imaginative, no more interesting. Cabin Fever sucked beyond belief! And any one who prtend's "it's horror back the way it's supposed to be. A nod to classic 70's horror" is just clowning them self. Donnie Darko, was an imaginative, brillent, funny, interesting, cult masterpiece. Don't dare even compare the two. Kelly deserves our praise, Eli Roth derserves a kick in the nuts!

    Cabin Fever

    by scythe1138

    Eli Roth should be crucified for that abomination. The fact that this monstrosity has supporters anywhere is enough to drive anyone who ponders on it after having seen it mad. Cabin Fever was not a train wreck, it was a meltdown on the scale of Chernobyl; I emerged from it bewildered and broken, and I felt like calling NEST or HAZMAT when I was finished wretching from its horrid after-effects. I have seen bad movies, terrible movies, films previously thought to be the worst possible (Future War, Manos: The Hands of Fate, Werewolf, Dungeons & Dragons, Highlander:Endgame), but Cabin Fever made me view them in a more favorable light. If there is one positive thing to be said about the movie, its that it makes me appreciate good films like never before. Upon viewing Hell, nothing on Earth can phase me.
