Originally posted by StereoPrincess you mean the other way around. he produced it not directed it. Eli Roth directed it.

ok, that sux then...if he directed it, I'd say it should have potential.

produced = shelled out money to make it and had *some* influence (maybe). shitty.

Originally posted by *~LiSa-LoO~* I just saw it and I didn't think it was very Tarintino-ish...but I did enjoy it. It's definatly not for people with easy stomach's but I dunno...I like sick twisted stuff like that. The scariest part is that it could be true for all we know. My friend was telling me about the back drop for the story. The director (I forget his name, but he did Cape Fear), had come across a website in Thailand or something where you could pay to torture people, and people in Thailand were selling their kids to this place to make money. He was going to do a documentary on it, but who would admit to something like that? Who knows if it was real or not...

I read about that in Eye Magazine I think. He wanted to do that doc. but was afraid that if he went too far he'd get killed himself, so he did Hostel instead.

Exactly...this is why people who are going to see it just b/c it's a "tarantino" film b/c they like his cinematography will not like it. He wasn't the one callin the "shots"! Oh my...that was funny...hehe

I saw this on Tuesday... i didn't think it was all that great either... not that i'm sick or anything but i felt like they really pussied out on the whole torture business... the trailers made it seem like it was so much more hardcore.. too bad they practically show all the parts IN the trailer...

i enjoyed it though..and i would suggest it to be a wait for rental..even maybe wait till pay-per-view...

worth watching though... and its pretty funny sometimes...
the Kid gang was the best part of the movie..especially at the end... crazy little bastards...

One other thing I didn't like about it...those B-grade actors...bad news. I wasn't a big fan of the acting job. Especially that Jay Hernandez...he sucked.
