When the kids are in the shop near the beginning of the film, at the shopkeepers desk is a cardboard box, and next to it are some jars and tins. Between a couple of shots the jars/tins rotate and move position on the desk, and also two or three jars/tins appear then disappear. See more...

The "questions" section is for any random questions that occurred to you while watching this film, or anything you didn't entirely understand, and which Google or the IMDb can't help with. Submit them as a question, and hopefully someone will answer (the bold comments in brackets) - check back regularly. If the answer is wrong, or missing information, please use the "clarify answer" option. Don't feel limited - want to know what music played in a certain scene? Whether this was the first film to use a certain effect? Here's the place to ask!
What was the whole "pancake" scene all about? I understand the director had the kid doing karate for the movie because he was impressed with it. But what does the kid yelling "pancake" have to do with karate? [Well, from what I know it is supposed to be an inside joke between Eli Roth and his friends. What the joke is, is beyond me.]
What was the first song that played in the credits? [Hi there, can't give you a name as it's been a long long time since I watched Cabin Fever. However, amazon.com has the listing for the soundtrack and you can listen to samples so hopefully it will help you find what you are looking for - http://www.amazon.com/Cabin-Fever-Various-Artists/dp/samples/B0000C3ICN/ref=dp_tracks_all_1/103-5216138-1263057#disc_1]
What was Paul doing with the Listerine in the bathroom after the sex scene? [He was making an attempt to disinfect his lower private parts so he wouldn't get the "fever".]
Answered by William Bergquist
Was the dog the host of the virus? [No, the virus was already there before Grim and Dr. Mambo (the killer dog) get there. The townspeople seem to have known about it for quite some time.]
Would a PUR water purifier filter out the disease in the water? [It really depends on whether the disease is virus or bacteria, in addition to what size it is as to whether a filter would keep it out. Boiling the water would almost certainly do it.]

I just want to know when the girl flips over her boyfriend in the sex scene what in the world is she supposed to be doing? [Sticking her finger up his bottom. I believe it is mentioned in one of the commentaries.]
At the end, when the police are burning the bodies at the cabin, "party man" deputy says he thinks there's another body, and it's in the basement. Everyone staying at the cabin is dead and accounted for. Whose body, and what basement, is he talking about? [This might be a nod to "Night of the Living Dead," which the scene of Jeff coming out of the house and getting shot is almost exactly like. In "Dead" they have to check the basement for other bodies.]

What was the whole pancakes scene about with Dennis? I just don't understand it. [The writer saw the boy's martial arts skills and wrote in that part just for him to be in the movie.]
What was in the box that the locals brought with them from the general store when they went to the cabin to take care of the infected teens? They referred to it as the kit, and it was carried by the heavy bald guy who got the screwdriver in his ear. [It was never revealed.]
