Hostel Movie Synopsis
Full of adventure and fun, two American college buddies Paxton and Josh backpack through Europe eager to make classically hazy travel memories with new friend Oli, an Icelander they meet along the way.
Paxton and Josh are eventually lured by a fellow traveler to what's described as a sort land of milk and honey for American backpackers -- a particular hostel in an out of the way Slovakian town stocked with Eastern European women as desperate as they are gorgeous. The two friends arrive and easily pair off with exotic beauties Natalya and Svetlana. In fact, too easily...
Initially distracted by the good time they're being shown, the Americans quickly find themselves in an increasingly sinister situation that they'll discover is as wide as the vast web of post-Communist government corruption and as deep as the darkest, sickest recess of human nature itself -- if they survive.
Good first half but quickly becomes predictable and cliched after that. Movie unfortunately revels in gore and blood rather than trying to be scary.
Stupid, and sick! How could this be aloud to be made..cutting peoples eyes out,horrible!
WORST HORRO FILM EVER!...I WANT MY FREAKIN MONEY BACK PLEASE!...NOW!
