I was browsing through F.Y.E when I ran into a little film called Hostel. I had heard alot about it a few years back, so I picked it up to inspect it further. That's when I saw that it was written and directed by ELI ROTH. That clinched the deal and I bought it that day.
Later that night I cozied up to my TV and got some Goldfish ready as I popped it in and pressed Play.
I was pleasantly surprised at how well the film ended up being.
The film follows 2 ignorant American Teenagers and an equally ignorant Icelandic teen as they stumble upon a seemingly heaven sent Slovkian Hostel (NAKED GIRLS EVERYWHERE!!!). Being young they fall for the trap hook, line, and suckers. Before we know it they start to mysteriously dissapear until only one is left. Worried, he decides to investigate and discovers the shocking truth behind the Hostel.
Hostel is a surprisingly dark and Brilliant film, preying upon the audiences expectations. It starts out as your typical Teen Comedy, then turns into a mystery and finally into a bloody, disturbing horror film.
It's one of the films where you'll hate yourself for liking it...I know I do. It's a dark, bloody, grusome, and distrubing film...but it's enthralling and once it grabs you it won't let you go till the very end.
Eli Roth is a frickin Genius!
