What. a. steaming. turd.
I admit I have a complicated appreciation for the first movie, and I actively like the second one... but this is *awful*. It loses all of the grubby, nasty, charm from its predecessors, instead subjecting us to the torture of following a group of unbearable friends for nearly FORTY MINUTES before any actual (ultimately mid) torture happens! Did someone forget this is a Hostel movie??
There were a couple of little moments I appreciated. A set-up that wasn't completely transparent, and some decent gore... but nothing that could wash its smug, bloated taste from my mouth. I hope this tanked at the box office. Whoever had the idea of inflating the Hostel universe deserves to have their pinky finger snapped.
