This looks really good. Quentin Tarantino has done his bits on the film so its bound to be above average at least.
Im watching this....definately.

the movie was awsome. I downloaded it the day after it came out in theater. Alot of people didn't like it though. Theres only about 20 minutes of actual horror in it the rest of the time is them partying and whatnot. Watch it and view it as a film, not a horror movie and you will enjoy it

Yeah. I watched this movie with my brother. It's a good time watching porn with your brother. (totally joking/sarcastic there) But other than that, the movie was pretty awesome - some pretty sick/twisted stuff, but entertaining, nonetheless.

Despite what the majority think, QT's never really bowled me over with his movies. Kill Bill was probably the most fun, but only because it included excessive sword fights in the first movie, and Pai Mei in the second. Incidently, isn't Pai Mei like the best character since Ash? I mean really, he looks down at women, has a beard, and can kick ass without breaking a sweat. Truly a man's man.

Anyways I digress. I'm not overly keen on seeing this movie. Maybe once when I'm watching TV and too tired to change the channel at it comes on, but not paying money.

QT deserves all the money he soaks up, I havent not enjoyed any of his movies, even Kill Bill vol 2 which had very mixed feelings from some people. Also, hes got some great acting abilities too, he was great in From Dusk Till Dawn.

QT is probably one of the best filmmakers of our generation, Pulp Fiction is in my top 5 atleast, and I also enjoyed Reservoir Dogs, and Kill Bill vol.1, I think I say a qoute from his movies atleast once a day.

As for Hostel, havent seen it, but its on my list. The dude from Friday Night Lights is in this correct?

Well, I just saw it and I am pretty impressed. Maybe a bit slow to begin with, I kinda wanted it to snap to the good stuff. When it did, It was glued to the screen. QT put in his work near the end IMO. The gore was all there, none of it too gross except when the man was forced to cut the womens eye off, the puss was a little stomach churning and When the guy was vomiting while having a gag in his mouth
It left me with WTF in my mind at the end. But I still enjoyed it. Particular favourite bits where when The man was tied up and the surgeon brought out the chainsaw, that bit was obviously looked closely by QT
There wasnt really any plot to go with all these moments, the only clues where when He met one of the surgeons and the surgeon was talking about the money he was getting from all of the killing he was doing
Overall, 8/10 for me, was better than The Hills Have eyes.
If you can deal with Gore, nudity and disturbing scenes I recommend this one.

Great Film. But three points to make.

A) this Movie is the awesome, but only for those comfortable with rather.. disturbing material at times. IE: boobies and Mutilation. Personally, Myself and my friend courtney laughed throughout the entire thing. conversely, my girlfriend kept her face in my chest and her hand sover her eyes for the entire latter half of the movie.
B) Quentin Tarantino's Stylistic awesomeness and interlacing plots have no bounds. Go Quentin.
C) The common Misconception that Tarantino filmed, Directed, Scripted, or otherwise wise heavy-handed in the making of this picture is all bunk. Quentin more or less popped his name onto his buddy Eli Roth's (Pulp Fiction, reservoir dogs) movie, so that a low budget horror flick would become, well, the #1 smash it was.
