A stern moralistic rebuke to ugly-Americanism. The movie is in-your-face but not pointlessly so.

Whereas most modern slasher films cut straight to the flesh-ripping for no purpose of art or psychological stimulation, Hostel marries them with skillful execution and, somehow, a relevant subtext.

Sadly, as with [director Eli] Roth's promising but flawed debut feature, its central conceit is more compelling than what ended up on screen.

This is routine Roth as usual. Homophobia, attempted nihilism, vapid writing, paper thin plot, and nonsensical all the way...

All this in a 94-minute movie that takes 45 minutes getting started!

This is a grim, gory, and unapologetically grungy piece of "survival horror." I dug it.

Whether or not this kind of horror movie is your cup of tea, you have to at least admire Roth for the daring and creativity with which he illustrates that concept.

A series of interesting ideas floating around a sea of blood

Although I spent much of the second half staring into my lap while listening to a cacophony of screams and shop tools, I processed enough of the first to appreciate Roth's sinister evocation of a Slovakian provincial town.

Roth is able to change the focus from frolicking raunchiness to extreme chilliness in a way that's quite sobering.

Hostel's merely unpleasant and more than a little dumb.
January 10, 2006
The film is too casually misanthropic and enamored of its expulsive prosthetic virtuosity to be politically relevant, and it's not clear what response -- shame? outrage? titillation? -- Roth is after.
