Hostel (2005)

Moral of the story....?

To be honest, i wanted to watch this movie because of that name on the top left corner. That's right Quentin Tarantino. Although Hostel is not directed by him, it sure makes me pay attention.

Alright, to be honest, the first 40 mins of the show is pretty graphic. Graphic as in there are always boobies bouncing around. Wow it is almost soft porn. But behind every boob, there lies a booby trap. ( Corny, i know)

3 backpackers, Paxton, Josh and Oli, were on a backpacking vacation. Both Paxton and Oli wanted Josh to get laid but the innocent Josh kept pushing away their advances. Until one night when they were locked out of their own hostel, they met a guy who told them that girls at a Slovakian city are beautiful and they dig Americans. The guy showed them the pictures he took with them and my oh my, seeing is believing.

Without any thoughts they immediately headed to Slovakia and stayed in a hostel. True enough the girls were friendly and they finally got laid but like the old saying: there is no free f**k in this world.

The next moment, Josh woke up in a dirty old cell. Feet and hands chained to the chair. I think the following quote will help me explain better: "I always wanted to be a surgeon. But the boards would not pass me. Can you guess why? You see? So I went into business. But business is so boring. You buy things you sell them, you make money you spend money. What kind of life is that? A surgeon, he holds the very essence of life in his hands - your life. He touches it." Your guess is as good as mine. Josh is so dead.

The pretty babes are part of the organization and they act as the bait for unwilling backpackers. Josh and Oli are dead. Can Paxton survive? Catch it before the blood dries up... It is quite a mindless movie and i hope you can see the punt in the headline.
