Hostel

Hostel (2005)
Dir: Eli Roth

Three backpackers travelling around Europe stumble across an underground torture ring.
This is an interesting horror film that almost lives up to its hype. It suffers from a really slow build up that should have been more foreboding. The acting is good and when the film finally gets going it's tense and gory. Much better than Roth's previous film, 'Cabin Fever', but not quite great.
