this movie hurt my soul

Rating: 1/10 (8 June 2006)

I was in the mood for a clever horror movie, akin to Saw, and was sorely disappointed with Hostel. The unrated version wasted nearly an hour of my life with gratuitous female nudity, irresponsible use of the word "retard", "faggot", and "gay" by Jay Hernadez's character, and all-in-all pointless scenes. The horror part didn't even start until well into the movie, and the plot development left much to be desired. Unfortunately, I watched the movie to the end, hoping Quentin Tarantino would redeem himself with some wit, some twist, or for heaven's sake, some plot!
Aside from a lot of blood/gore, nudity, and swearing, this movie had no substance. Unlike Saw, which was a smart and scary enough movie to leave out the unnecessary tits that pad any bad movie, I found Hostel to be insulting and an absolute waste of time for anyone other than a horny 12-year-old boy with an IQ of 80.
