Hostel

Post by The Fox »

Just watched this film on DVD and it was great. Pretty sick but great ideas all round.

Sorry if it's been mentioned before but, i couldn't see it.

Makes you wonder if this could be happening in real life :shock:

Hmmmm, it always cracks me up how horror/dark movies always have a hotel or an abandoned home as their killing place and everytime, people always fall for it. I just saw "Freaks" and "I Am Curious", not scary but disturbing. The Night Porter is also good!

Well the "based on/inspired by actual events" tag is not so close to the movie. The director, Eli Roth, heard about a website from I think it was Thailand or some country in south east asia where you could pay money, and you'd get a gun and you come to the place and shoot someone, kill them.

He thought it was some sick joke until the site asked for credit card information...

I wouldn't be surprised if something like the movie has happened in real life though.

I watched it a while ago and thought it was awesome, i liked it how it was different.. apart from it being realy sick and grusome, the main character did what you wanted him to do. unlike other horror movies were they get caught and stuff.

the best bit was when he run over them 3 people who made him go there, class.

That was just sick when he cut the back of the guy's feet. Ya no, when he stood up and tilted forward?

So many disgusting / sick scenes in this movie in this movie, and lots of women in no clothes. Kind of a strange mix. I think it was a good movie, but disturbing.  :shock:
