A good, solid hardcore horror movie that will have you biting your nails.

Rating: 10/10 (31 March 2006)

Eli Roth was the master who brought us the neat little shocker 'Cabin Fever' which was a pretty gruesome piece of work. Now, he has donned the role as director in Quentin Tarrantino's torture shocker, Hostel, which completely over goes the limit of how far a hardcore horror audience will go. This sick little shocker relies on it's main cast, and it's low budget, but believe me, this is far more believable than your average J-movie ghost stories, and arguably more scary for example. The story is pretty simple. 3 guys looking for booze, sex...and well...booze and sex, stumbles upon a seemingly superb hostel...and...you know the rest.
Roth was clearly feeling peckish, with limbs flying about like a tennis tournament, and scenes to curl even the straightest hair. an eye for an eye i must say, as a women is literally ripped apart. Okay, then. I found this movie pretty shocking, and couldn't believe the reaction from others in the Cinema. Wow...Gosh...AAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!!! Unbelivebly gory, but this really is Hardcore Haven, and compared to such 'horror' trash as 'The Fog' remake, this is the granddaddy of all horror movies...
