Hearst Finds "Patient Zero"

Lydia Hearst has joined the cast of Kaare Andrews' horror prequel "Cabin Fever: Patient Zero" says Heat Vision.


The story sees a bachelor party cruise in the Caribbean unexpectedly comes ashore on a medical-research island and a deadly virus is unleashed. The passengers must struggle to find a way to survive before their own demons and the flesh-eating bacteria consumes them all.

Lydia will play a wide-eyed research grad student who is aligned with the film’s antagonist (Sean Astin). Mitch Ryan, Brando Eaton, Gillian Murray Ryan Donowho and Ben Hollingsworth also star.

Jake Wade Wall ("The Hitcher," "When a Stranger Calls") wrote the script.

Eli Roth directed the original Cabin Fever horror film about a group of college graduates who rent a cabin in the woods and begin to fall victim to a flesh-eating virus. A 2009 sequel was produced

Evan Astrowsky is producing Zero

Shooting kicks off mid-October in the Dominican Republic.

We also have the second prequel, "Cabin Fever: Outbreak", to look forward to

Adam Marcus and Deborah Marcus are writing Outbreak which follows a doctor and his family who travel to a remote Caribbean island to investigate a minor flu outbreak, only to discover a vicious flesh-eating virus that threatens everyone on the island.
