This movie is not special, but does every movie have to be? No!
It's an average body horror movie, with good acting and partially great special effects.
I have the feeling as though they did their best with the budget that was provided.
Due to the fact that this is (basically) a remake, the story is not creative, everybody who knows "Cabin Fever" will not be surprised.
Nonetheless I enjoyed this movie because I believe that not every movie must be special and the entertainment value was sufficient. I wasn't bored, annoyed or irritated and because I didn't have high expectations, the viewing experience was sufficient.
Because of this I gave this average horror movie what it deserves, a 5 out of 10.

This movie could have been great but because it utterly wastes it's potential, I felt obliged to write and warn about it.
Some people say this movie is alright but it is not! Don't waste your time!
It has a famous cast, special effects/ makeup was good and the plot had potential.
How could this go so very wrong!
The acting was atrocious, you could think they are all amateurs.
The characters are stereotypes... the strong scientist lady, the evil military commander, the fat nerdy guy, the good guy protagonist with a tragic past.
The plot was terrible too, with the characters making stupid choices and acting more like children than adults.

I was positively surprised by the high quality of the production.
I did however struggle with the portrayal of Reinhard Heydrich, who seemed too soft for a man of his caliber. I understand what the makers of this film were going for by portraying him like this, creating a disturbing contrast between his cultured appearance on the one hand and his utterly barbaric intentions on the other... showing a wolf in sheep clothing. I believe that the historical Heydrich was a man who oozed authority and arrogance, knowing that he was very much feared by fellow Nazis and enemies alike.
On the other hand I was very much impressed by the portrayal of Heinrich "Gestapo" Müller by the actor Jakob Diehl . It seemed like a spot on portrayal.
The actor probably did some in depth research on Müllers biography.
Müller seemed uncomfortable with this meeting and conveyed the general impression as though he did not want to be there. Mr. Diehl did a great job in showing the fact, that Müller was not a convinced Nazi but instead a careerist of the very worst type. The type of person who was literally willing to contribute to some of the worst crimes in history as long as this would advance his career.
