What happens

Cabin Fever is an American comedy horror film series created by Eli Roth. It includes the original theatrical films, two straight-to-video follow-ups that both had limited theatrical releases, and a theatrical remake. The plot centers around groups of people who contract an extremely deadly flesh-eating disease, and their attempts to survive its symptoms. The original film received mixed reviews but was a box-office success. The sequel was more poorly received but remained profitable. The prequel drew negative reviews but earned income through home media sales. The 2016 remake had the weakest critical response and performed poorly financially. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
