NOPE!!!...it count for him. him being the producer was a big part of the promotions for this dud.

MMMHUH, don't nobody wanna see that over-the-top bullshit. it tanked. GOOD!

a horror film at the start of summer and your only real comp is ocean's 13 and you can't pull 10? LMAO!!!! ***hot fiya happy dance***

so, here's a list of movies it won't gross more than...

Stomp the Yard SGem $61,356,221 <----black people dancing

Are We Done Yet? SonR $48,678,162 <----cube smilin and black family

Disturbia P/DW $77,795,000 <-----shia dogg

Freedom Writers Par. $36,605,602 <--------HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Music and Lyrics WB $50,572,589 <------a bad date movie outgrossed every taratino-related release of the past 2 years?....DAMN!!!!

Premonition Sony $47,852,604 <-----america's sweetheart still turns profits...BETTER!

The Messengers SGem $35,374,833 <-----a horrow flick with penelope ann miller? i think that sums it up

what a waste of film

whats the point of making a film in which you watch people get tortured for two hours...
It's like Passion of the Christ without a profound message...
Too bad they'll most likely make a Hostel III in 2009...
They're still going to make a silly ass Saw 4 which is just Hostel with bear traps on people's heads...

I saw the first one and it wasn't a good story or compelling just really fucking nasty. It was too much of me turning away. I even left the the room a few times. Felt the same way about the first "Saw" ain't see one of them shits since.

but theres no huge blockbuster market for it


<------ i lean wit it...then i rock wit it

While I think hostel sucks, and was actually weak on the gore, I think the concept could have been excellent they just dumbed it down.

The whole idea of the rich buying the right to kill people? Interesting to me

Have you seen 13 Tzameti?

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475169/

Devil's Rejects
Hills Have Eyes
Saw, etc.

I'll take the gore genre over the "remake of a remake" genre or the "hidden racist" tripe they put out on the regular.

Y'all are acting like the genre is making grillions.

scream II/seven...all this saw/hostel/gorecinema
garbage has been going on way too long.

i dunno, these movies always felt like art
made by people who like the genre but have
nothing original or entertaining to
say, so they just ramp up the fucked up
violence and greusomnest to compensate...

besides THE ABYSS, i can't think of
any horror film in years that has
done anything but gross people the
fuck out in attempts to be scary
or suspensful...

the sooner they bury this genre,
the better.

Scream brought back the typical horror film. Seven was followed by some darker thrillers but neither was really straight gore like Hostel seems to be.

my fault

The Descent, 28 Days/Weeks Later, The Ring (Ringu), The Abandoned, The Eye, the Dawn of the Dead remake, Audition, etc., are just suspense-less, gross-out fests?

of the others, the only ones
i saw were THE RING and 28 DAYS
LATER, which were not.

but my criticism - i should have
been more specific - were at
american based gorefests. 28 DAYS
LATER is not an american movie,
and THE RING was originally japanese.

(and if i recall, the directed is
not american, either)

i should have been more clear, sorry

nor was it just a gore fest since all the gore only came up in the last part of the movie

I can't believe people in here are shitting on Dawn 04 like this.

First of all, I think it's the best action/horror film since Aliens. Secondly, it's not even gross. The original version with its close-ups of skullcaps slowly getting peeled off is much grosser.

Finally, there's a healthy dose of suspense in that film. When Sarah Polley's character arrives home, and we get that first glimpse of her daughter out in the hallway...when the second set of survivors arrive at the mall with the dashing zombies in hot pursuit...when the mall crew is forced to secure the basement aka attack of the legless zombie playing monkey bars...the Andy rescue attempt...

Are you guys just writing this film off because it's a remake?

on these boards though if it ain't artsy fartsy then it gets no love anyway. I go to horror site boards when I want to talk about these movies. Cats on here just seem to hate about anything that someone else enjoys

I know that much, even with the stupid ending. THAT movie was scary, IMO.

my friends and I laughed through the entire thing

like the pregnancy shootout? lmao

It feels like an unnecesarry sequel that was only made because the first one turned a profit.

Granted I haven't been a big fan of Tarantino for a few years now...probably since Jackie Brown. And I thought Death Proof had major faults.

But...

The way folks talk around here, it's like dude's box office failure is his comeuppance for being a bully in high school.

I mean damn. I gave up on John Singleton a long time ago, but it doesn't mean I have something personal against the man, like "Nigga I just wanna see you fail in life hahahahahahahah!"

you missed out on all the drama

let's just say that among a certain contingent in PTP, Tarantino is the antithesis of all that is cool, honest and niggery.

That seems like something that needs to be seven, minimum.

but they have a bunch of acolytes who often mill around and cheer whenever they're hitting their groove.

these people would never DREAM of voicing an opinion on their own, of course... but the zest and excitement with which they cosign the Big Three makes them accomplices, i think.

Tarantino still basking in Pulp Fiction glory.

A nerd who suddenly became cool forgot that he still a nerd.

Hostel was over top blood and guts, but I thought Jay Hernandez's character was great. Oh, and the naked women didn't hurt either, a subtle nod to anyone who's been to that part of Europe.

But from reading the Hostel 2 reviews, it sounds like the only thing change Tarantino/Roth made to the plot was swap 3 guy backpackers with 3 girl backpackers this time. No thanks.

it was much different from the first one and it was about 10 times better...I thought the first one was garbage.

and i hope yall get that new drug resistant TB from it too.

There are no big name actors in Hostel 2, unless you consider Roger Bart a "big name". Oceans 13 has Al-fuckin'-Pacino, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, etc.

Knocked Up is the best reviewed major studio film of the year so far. Pirates, Shrek & Surf's Up are kid's movies and are in more theaters than Hostel.

The fact is, this was released at the wrong time - Sept. or Oct. would have been a better market. I expected it to place around #5, it placed at #6. Oh well.

BTW, I just found out today Fantastic 4/Silver Surfer is rated PG...the fuck?

because they thought it was funny. i didnt find it funny. i found it to be up there with armageddon on the boring scale. i think they liked it because they were familiar w the director or creator or sumshit. white people are idiots

makes them idiots. which makes you.... a genious?

> white people are idiots

Especially alongside Pirates, Die Hard and Fantastic Four?

These films should be a Fall/Winter thing ONLY.

...because it came out in January. I guess they figured because it did so well in January, picked up a large fanbase and garnered large DVD sales that it would translate into summer movie success.

The first one was a success because it was a surprise in a dead time of year.

dont have a desire to pay to see this one. may watch when it reaches hbo

He's just not very good at anything.

HAHAHA

HAHAHA

You cruel

I did like a couple of the other recent horror movies mentioned in this post (The Descent, The Ring, and the first Saw).
