Hollywood is getting a new case of Cabin Fever.
The horror franchise is being revived by the Indomina Group without the input of series creator Eli Roth. The series will come back with two prequels, Cabin Fever: Patient Zero and Cabin Fever: Outbreak.
The movies would be shot back-to-back next spring in the Dominican Republic.
Patient Zero will tell the origin of the flesh-eating virus unleashed in the 2002 original, and follow the passengers of a cruise ship in the Caribbean that collides with an abandoned research vessel. They must find a way to survive before the disease consumes them.
In Outbreak, a doctor and his family travel to a remote Caribbean island to investigate a minor flu outbreak, only to discover a vicious flesh-eating virus that threatens everyone on the island. The family is faced with responsibility to prevent a worldwide epidemic.
