This crap made me write the first comment on IMDb

Rating: 3/10 (12 July 2007)

I watched this film about half an hour ago and I have been having an urge to warn everyone; you can still walk away even if you have already started watching it, even after half an hour! Do not take Tarantino's name as a warranty that it is a good movie. And it was shot in the Czech Republic.(well, at least the train station scenes)
I expected some excitement from Hostel just like from every horror-like movies I watch. It tried to be scary with a kind of mixture of Texas Chainsaw Messacre (the psychopath who was impressed by the survivor guy's German), House of Wax (the second guy who was captured) and a tiny bit of Hills Have Eyes (with the Japanese girl's deformed right eye) and also a bit from Eurotrip (the "s'cuse" Italian guy on the train). This is not a horror or even a mystery, but the trashiest crap I have seen in the last few years. I was wondering how a great director like Quentin Tarantino could give his name to promote this whatchamacallit, Hostel?! The storyline, acting, venues are absolutely absurd and unreal. Even the psychopaths are ridiculous, not frightening at all.
Personally, I hate when Hollywood movies are trying to show the 21th century Central-Eastern Europe as it was 60 years ago, during communism. There are newly-built houses, modern cars, not like Ladas and Volgas, not every second men wears wellingtons, and people are friendly. Disappointing cinematography, very bad editing, such a stupid conversations that you crave the first two guys to die. At least they did.
My favourite part was when a group of kids killed all three of the Russian mafia guys towards the end of the film... I think the second part will make a good base for the next Scary Movie sequel.
3 out of 10 is my final judgement.(2 points for the girls)
