Eli's debut

Rating: 5/10 (3 April 2012)

Director-writer Eli Roth should return to his old job guarding Howard Stern's trailer while the king of all media slept during breaks while making the film private parts. He should have paid attention to Betty Thomas and Ivan Reitman and maybe he would have learned something about film making.
Hostel is a poorly written and badly acted amateurish debut by the former trailer watcher who has not impressed me with this opening effort.
Three college students are traveling across Europe and find a hostel to stay at cheaply. They meet two beautiful women who invite them out to dance. One of the kids disappears and a photo of his severed head appears on a cell phone. Next up we are treated to handcuffs, mutilations and every form of fun imaginable. There was no need for a sequel; one hostel is quite enough.
