The Hostel reviews are coming in… and man they look far better than I anticipated. Right from the first time I saw the Hostel trailer I thought it looked scary as hell… but so do all horror trailers, so I didn’t really think too much about it. But them came the Hostel clips online, the second trailer, and now the Hostel reviews. Now it’s official, I’m excited to see this hacker flick.
As of right now, Hostel has a 89% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. That’s an impressive starting number. I expect that number to go down a little (just because of the type of film it is) but this is still nothing but good news for horror fans. Here’s what some of the critics have to say:
“If you’re fascinated with butcher work and chopped up corpses, this is the movie for you.”
Kevin N. Laforest, MONTREAL FILM JOURNAL“A horrifying excursion into a nightmarish world few of us would ever want to experience firsthand”
Edward Douglas, COMINGSOON.NET“One of the best horror movie since Craven’s Scream!”
Stefan Birgir Stefansson, SBS.IS“A gory, bloody, disgusting good time.”
Jon Popick, PLANET SICK-BOY
So there you have it. From the sounds of the Hostel reviews a horror fan really couldn’t ask for more. Take a date… she’ll be in your lap in 10 minutes :)
