There are good bad movies and there are bad bad movies  This one is a real stinker

Rating: 1/10 (7 December 2006)

If you enjoy the occasional B-flick with a nice amount of gore, you might be tempted to see Hostel. Don't! The characters are lame, the story almost non-existing and the blood'n'guts are not scary, but simply wildly disgusting. The diminutive plot has been done to death already in much better films.
Even though the genre does not call for spectacular writing or even a deeper meaning, the better horror/gore-movies at least has an interesting idea, an unsuspected twist or a psychological depth to character development. Hostel is completely stripped of any intelligent ingredients.
1 star for gorgeous girls in full-frontal and for providing a fairly convincing and creepy (although very cliché) eastern European backdrop to all the gruesome stupidity.
