Eli Roth the new face of modern Horror?

Rating: 9/10 (23 January 2006)

This Horror Queen has just had the opportunity to see the movie. Wow! What a ride. With such an original concept, the idea of this whole movie is that it could really be real. I feel bad that Fangoria slammed this little flick. They over analyzed it. It was just plain fun and no more. People like me don't care about acting styles and camera shots (in horror movies). Just give us the gore! And Roth delivers. I must admit that even though the movie was creepy, it did not give me the genuine scare I usually look for, however the scare is what goes home with you after watching the film. (I know I'm never going to a 3rd world country to stay in a creepy Hostel anytime soon.)
For you guys, there is enough T&A in the first 45 minutes to keep you entertained. For us "Gore Whores" we get the rest of the film. One word: EYEBALL! I can't wait for the DVD. I know there is more that the MPAA did not want me to see in a public theater.
I highly recommend seeing this movie at the theater even though an "Unrated" version will probably be much better. Having an theater experience with a movie like this is just pure fun. (I thought the people sitting behind me were going to puke.) Eli Roth brings a raw new vision in horror. Something we haven't seen in a long time. It's dark, creepy, and definitely sick. But knowing he didn't have to spend millions to do it is genius! I am looking forward to more of his films. They can only get better.
The moral of the story is: Guys who think with their "you know whats", get chopped up into little pieces.
See it!!
