6 or 7?! Four is still quite a lot.
How many DVDs do you know with 6 or 7 commentaries?

I really enjoyed Cabin Fever, especially after an angry mob (consisting of my parents) told me that it was a pile of shite.

Furthermore, my friends were also part of this mob.

Therefore, I'm going to look forward to this film.

Tell us what you think, I have already seen this movie, it was an okay movie, 1st part was a bit slow, but the 2nd half is really good. Don't like the way they had tieded up the ending thou :(

i thought it was pretty decent,reminded me a little of from dusk till dawn in that the first & 2nd halves are like 2 different movies ,quite nasty at times as well,especially for an american mainstream movie.nice transfer as well.there's a sequel in the offing apparently.

Hostel Unrated 4/5

I'm pretty surprised that no one has given this a positive review. Even Cabin Fever fans have slated this. I thought it was damn entertaining. Funny, kind of sick (but not really) and interesting message about exploitation.

It's worth watching for the uber cool Takashi Miike cameo. Pretty smart.

PS: Also, the film wasn't as graphic as I expected.

Rumour has that Hostel 2 will be banned in NZ. Sony refuses to make the necessary cuts to pass classification.

Good to see that they're doing the job, protecting the public from shitty movies by retarded hacks like Eli Roth.
