Tops Cabin Fever!!!

Rating: 10/10 (17 September 2005)

I just saw the premiere at Toronto this afternoon. Eli Roth was presenting Hostel as a 'work in progress'. Let me say this, you could hardly tell. The look of the film was excellent.
Now on to film. Hostel is story about some guys back packing through Europe looking for drugs and girls. They hear about a Hostel that is supposed to have the best girls around, so they decided to go check it out in Slovakia. Surprise, surprise it's not quite what they expected.
This movie made me want to throw up at times, and that is a compliment. Some scenes were just so unsettling and disturbing. Fans of the genre will not be disappointed. If you want to see a great horror film that doesn't hold back the punches or try to sell you any watered down PG13 crap, then this is the movie for you. Eli Roth knows how to make the audience squirm in their seats and doesn't hold back on the gore. There should be more films like this out there.
