Lemon Popsicle meets Saw

Rating: 1/10 (23 May 2007)

Young tourists ( backpackers ) traveling around Europe ( story begin in Amsterdam, The Netherlands ) with just one interest, girls, girls, breasts ( big big breasts, and naked ) and Sex. The get told about a nice place in Slovakia, a hostel, to visit... Why? Having sex, sex, sex! The girls there are only awaiting for Americans for having sex, sex, sex... The complete dialogs are about that. So, no wasting time, they travel to Slovakia, which is set like 3rd world nation with violent children gangs, obsolete cars / trains, shabby villages. Every stereotype of Eastern Europe is served here.
They checked into the hostel and get to know with young girls, for sex sex sex...
Up to now, you believe, that you picked a cheap sex comedy movie, as the "Lemon Popsicle" movies from the late 70th, the dialogs are crappy and they are even undergoing the low level of "American Pie".
Then rapidly the movie turned into a cheap slasher movie, bloody pictures, the stereotype chainsaw. Because the Hostel is only there to kidnap young people for millionaire, which pay a lots of money to torture them to death.
The violent scenes are making no sense, are overages especially when the "hero" cuts with a scissors the rest of an eye from a Japanese girl, with was burned out of the face with an welding set. With this burned face, cut out eye, of course, they fled through "half" Slovakia without consulting a doctor, or even attracting attention on a crowded platform of a station.
The level of the movie is somewhere underneath the carpet, the acting is horrible, the dialogs childish, there's no story at all. No surprise by seeing the "Making Off", on which the maker is first introducing us about the bad toilets in Slovakia, "on which he can feel the heat of his excrement, because it is so close to his buttock..."
So, debating like this, no surprise about the childish peace of crap made here. Quentin Tarantino, sorry, why making such good movies like "Pulp Fiction" or "Jacky Brown" or "Kill Bill", why after producing such great movies like "Killing Zoe" or "From dusk till Dawn" or "True Romance"... and than supporting this flick?? And even producing a sequel? After "Natural Born Killers" the next big mistake...
