efficient but not easy too watch

Rating: 8/10 (29 July 2006)

'Hostel' directed by Eli Roth and produced and introduced by Quentin Tarantino is not easy too watch. It's a horror movie about a group of teens traveling to Eastern Europe whose trip for fun and sex turns in a trip of horror, when they fall victims to a gang of who attract tourists into becoming victims of a sadistic torture_per_pay theater. The difference between other many movies of the genre is that the introduction that looks much like a American_teen_trip_to_Europe film develops gradually in what seems to be a very realistic rendition of the post-Communist Easter Europe turned into a big circus of horror. The setting is much more realistic and credible than in the classic American movies of the genre, and the resulting violence and torture scenes exceed the usual limits. The film is well made and well acted, but while you admire the directors and actors skills you just with that they were spent into making some more entertaining, easier to watch and meaningful movie.
