![]() ![]() There are quite a few filmmaking nuggets, and production details given here that are really intriguing. The commentary is really interesting, and covers a lot about Eli Roth's personal life. ![]() Aside from Rider Strong's commentary this is the only other commentary that is uninterrupted, and flows through consistently. “We were our characters in so many ways.” - Rider StrongĮli Roth. “You have to forge your own opportunities in this industry.” - Rider Strong “We don't ever depart from a very scientific reality.” - Rider Strong “Ben Savage once slammed his balls.” - Rider Strong (not much context needed on this one) Notable Quotables “They're Going To Be Traumatized - Rider Strong on how his Boy Meets World fans will react. Things like the dog, pancake kid, and the karoke stand-off are all featured elsewhere. A lot of the more interesting elements are dealt with in other commentaries. The commentary has some interesting elements to it, but if you aren't a fan of Rider Strong most of the stories he tells won't be of much interest to you. They talk about the character's origins, the transition from Television acting to Film acting, and how Rider deals with all of his fans. The commentary has a nice flow to it, and really narrows down specifically on Rider Strong's character. This commentary was clearly originally meant to be spliced in with “The Boys” commentary however as it says on the DVD, Rider Strong talked too much. “Eli enough with the notes.” - James Debello “I always talk like I'm having an orgasm.” - Adam Roth mimicking his brother Eli Roth “Joey shut the fuck up while I tell a story.” - James Debello Robert Harris who sadly passed away last year is the only real reason to listen to this commentary. Eli's friends come on at one point, and in the highlight the elderly man who runs the convenience store makes an appearance for the last five minutes. The commentary like every commentary (save two) is cut together with a variety of guests. You feel bad for an actor like Joey Kern who attempts to go into some serious areas, in order to discuss his character but he is just overshadowed by Jimmy's sheer insufferableness. On this commentary he constantly interrupts Eli Roth whenever he goes into a topic unrelated to their performances, and usually Eli was preparing to tell a story much more interesting than anything else on the commentary. He wouldn't read the script, he was constantly on his cell phone, and overall he was just a troublemaker. ![]() The more commentaries you listen to, the more you get the feeling that people weren't too fond of Debello on set. Apparently James Debello isn't much of an actor because he talks almost exactly like his counterpart in the movie. For those who haven't seen this film in a while James Debello plays the dude who lights fires, and shoots at squirrels. This is the worst commentary track on the DVD for one reason James Debello, or Jimmy as the entire cast refers to him. This commentary features the entirety of the male cast minus Rider Strong as he has a commentary track all his own. I will be ranking them from worst, to best in order to assist you through the commentary landscape. There are 5 Commentary Tracks on the Lion's Gate DVD for Cabin Fever, and had I expanded to the recent Blu-Ray release the total commentaries would have been 6. So if ever I were to suffer from actual Cabin Fever now would be the time. ![]() My current residence is living in a cabin that gets its water from the lake (no flesh eating viruses I swear), in complete isolation. In order to fully delve into the insanity that is the nearly 8 hours of Cabin Fever Commentaries, I must first give a little background. ![]()
