Las Vegas readers, mark your calendars for this coming Saturday night (Jan. 17), as Days of the Dead will be hosting a very special screening of the 4K release of Lionsgate’s cult classic Cabin Fever, arriving on Blu-ray steelbook tomorrow.
This isn’t just your typical screening. In fact, it’s a reunion of sorts with director Eli Roth appearing in person with cast members Rider Strong, Jordan Ladd, Cerina Vincent, Joey Kern, and James DeBello for a special Q+A that will take place at the Beverly Theater starting at 8:15 PM. Tickets are available here.
In the 2002 film that broke Roth onto the horror scene:
For five friends barreling down a mountain road toward a remote cabin, college is over, adulthood looms, and one last summer of decadence awaits. But when a stranger stricken with a flesh-eating virus shows up at their door, the infection spreads, terror erupts, and friend is pitted against friend in a paranoid nightmare of contagion and survival.
Days of the Dead is a national horror convention that will also be taking place Jan. 16-18 at the Plaza Hotel and Casino (from Back to the Future II!) In addition to Eli Roth and the Cabin Fever cast, other guests include Linda Blair (The Exorcist), David Howard Thornton (Terrifier 1-3), Sean Cunningham (Friday the 13th), Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street) and many, many more.
