-The Days Are Numbered-

1.The streets of London scenes were shot in the early hours on weekdays. The crew only had a couple of minutes each day. Crewmembers regularly had to stop and politely ask clubbers not to walk onto shots.

2.When Jim is walking around a deserted London, other people are visible on two occasions. First, when we see the Bridge, there's a white van traveling along the docks (bottom left). Secondly, in a shot from behind of Jim walking up the main street, there's the silhouette of another person walking towards him further up the road.

3.When the Taxi is being escorted to the army headquarters, the boot is closed, but when the taxi arrives at the headquarters the boot is open again and filled with the shopping.

4.The pilot radios "Lähetäppä halikopteri" which is Finnish and means "Send in the helicopter".

Eli Roth, David Lynch's protégé for whom he did several short-movies, produces here his first long-running movie called "Cabin Fever", a movie shot in 24 days in Camp Raven Knob, a boy-scout camp in North Carolina.
Inspired by a misadventure that happened to him when he was 19, the director and script-writer of the movie plays with his personal fear of diseases and with the reaction that we may have when confronted to it.
So, "Cabin Fever" is a very good B-movie which makes its way out of the sterilized Teen Slasher Movies but, unfortunately, with an imperfect rhythm.

- Facts About The Move-

1.The original killer dog in "Cabin Fever" was so old and tired that all of its scenes had to be re-shot with a new dog. With no time or money to find a replacement, the producers cast a real police attack dog that was so vicious and unpredictable that no actors could appear with it on camera. The crew would hide behind trucks during its scenes, and cameras were operated by remote control.

2.Joey Kern was rushed to the hospital four separate times for different eye injuries

.3.Sound mixer John Neff survived the real flesh-eating bacterium, which he contracted in a hospital during minor surgery. It took 13 days of non-stop intensive care medical attention to save his life. Neff maintains the make-up in the film is 100% accurate.

4.Lion's Gate Films bought the movie for an undisclosed sum in the "high seven figures", with an eight figure commitment to prints and advertising. It is the most money Lion's Gate has ever spent acquiring a motion picture up to 2002.

I loved this film and in the summer of 2002, and once the DVD came out I almost married it. I watched this movie a good 200 times. It is based upon the smash hit video game "Resident Evil", but they really didn't stick to the game that much, and some people were ticked about that, but other than that I say that this was a fairly good Zombie movie.

- Flesh Eating Frolics!-
 

1.When she enters the Hive, Alice, straight from her shower, has on no makeup. As she travels through the hive, however, her makeup changes from scene to scene. This is especially obvious when her lipstick shade changes drastically several times.

2.When Alice and her "husband" are arguing in the lab, her hair changes positions each time the camera returns to her.

3.Director George A. Romero was originally attached to write and direct, but left the project due to creative differences over the script.

4.This film was originally titled "Resident Evil: Ground Zero," but the title was changed to just "Resident Evil" after the September 11 attacks.
