maus1985 Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 If you've seen any of Dario Argento's films, or the movie dead alive, or any similar horror movies in the ultra-gore genre; then Hostle will be more of the same, though painted on a hurried feeling canvas. the films' statement is nearly lost among layers of fake tits and fake blood. The director asks, what is the difference between sexual exploitation and homocidal exploitation? where is the line drawn between the perversion of sexual servitude or the sale of intercourse for the gratification of a sexual desire, and the total demeaning of the value of human virtue to the limit of the gratification of the perversion that demands human mortality for a repressed sexual or maniacal desire? this point however is camoflaged by the obtuse vulgarity of the films special effects and eye candy. overall, an interesting visual and societal statement that lacks a clear motive and expresses an almost adolescant desire to play with mammi and excrement. interesting, however no more than a footnote in the encyclopedia of its genre.

Dr. Dazzle Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 OK, I went in to this expecting it to be this uber-gorey, faux-snuff film. There was even people in the theater buying tickets talking about how horrible this movie is. Everybody has made it out like this is the goriest film ever. Well it's not. It sucked. Big time. It's no more gorey than your typical lame teenage horror flick. The only thing that made it even worth watching was all the super hot girls and tit shots. Other than that, yet another total let down. I'm so glad I don't pay to see movies anymore... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geezpot Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Hostel wasn't that bad, the concept was cool and I heard that Slovakia was pissed at the bad PR for tourism. I'd like to be a part of the hound dogs! Don't watch it as a horror but more of a suspense drama. Interesting link, how much are you worth? http://www.humanforsale.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
