O.k. I don't know where to even begin.....

 

My Hats off to Eli Roth.

 

First let me start with my experience with the movie.  I don't know all the ins and outs of movies as far as how they work and who does what or whatever.  I usually base my viewing of movies on the trailer or what people have said about the movie.  I do watch independent movies because some are really good and you don't know for sure unless you watch them.  I saw the previews for the this movie and it looked like a movie I'd want to see as a horror buff but then I saw presented by Quentin Tarantino I thought "no way" this movie is going to rock. 

 

When the movie came out I couldn't wait to see it.  I left there like "whoah" that blows my mind ...a place where people pay to kill other people.  So I'm driving home and I'm thinking about the movie because it still blew me away that it was a place where people paid to kill people.  I must say I didn't see it coming at all and I was thinking what the hell is this place?  Are they going to sell their organs? What do they do here? Why are they doing this to these people?  Then the fact it turns out that people we paying someone to kill other people...That was f'in brilliant!  The concept, no one had ever done a movie about that or thought about that.

 

So I'm thinking back on the movie and I'm like, I have to tell my best friend Beth about this movie its going to f'in blow her mind.  She has to go see this movie.  To me for me it was like the Sixth Sense I couldn't stop talking about it.  So of course I bought the movie when it came out and watched it again and I loved the second one equally.  I recently bought the second dvd which when I was viewing it I pressed for the subtitles to come on because I didn't understand when someone said something and when I pressed for the subtitles I saw all this other stuff you could view and decided to watch it after the movie was over and what I realized after I put on the subtitles that there was alot of stuff being said in the background you just make out as chitter chatter but it was actually the actors talking and a bunch of other dialogue I had originally missed so it made the movie that much better for me as if that was possible.  So when the movie was over I started it back to the beginning with subtitles to see what I missed from the beginning making me love the movie that much more.  So when the movie was over I wanted to know everything about it and listened to the interview and saw the gag reels and listened to his commentary.

 

And I'm like are you f'in serious this was this guys first movie to write.  This guy is a f'in genius.  Kind of like Eminem.  I know you may not like Eminems' music but you have to say he was a f'in genius.  His lyrics, he could wrap and here is this white rapper saying these things.  He was genius in representing how the younger generation feels sometimes, they don't talk about it but they feel those feelings.  But anyway back to the movie.  So he made this movie on $3 million dollars unbelieveable.  It had the quality and feel of a big movie.  These actors were just genius, the fact that he just happened or thought about including these actors and they fit so perfectly to the charactar was unremarkable.  So I'm listening about his intentions for the movie and how he wanted the audience to feel and so I went back and watched the movie again and it worked perfectly.  I didn't realize it but his intentions were for us to really like Josh and see the world through Joshs eyes and really care about Josh and when he was killed off it was a real let down because Paxton was a jerk and Oli was just along for the ride.  Then you find yourself feeling sorry for this Jerk when he realizes hes all along and things are getting really weird.  I liked how Eli kind of drew you to the softer side of Paxton when they were walking down the street talking about the drowning it made Paxton alot more likeable before he killed off Josh.  Eli just thought of everything. 

 

So anyway I love his political views you should listen to them I agree and they make alot of sense and the movie does coincide with politics and money and greed.  Where ultimately the rich can't get rich enough, they are bored and ultimately they have all the power and use it in violence.

 

The fact that some of the people who stood in the movie but weren't actors they had a role on the set but they fit perfectly in that role.  All so genius.

 

So anyway I think there should be a Hostel 3 I want one.  This time I think Beth should come back for them.  Shes smart, she has a ton of money and she is the type of person that would have to put an end to this.  But how does she go about doing it if they have their hands in everything?  So how is she going to put an end to this and go into how the factory operates, how do they get their clients?, how come all these people are involved but no one important not involved hasn't found out?  Eli your a genius you can do it.
