Advantages: Beautiful, charming, sophisticated beach resort Disadvantages: Other than getting there - none really.
You may notice from my 'ciao' name that I have some interest in Búzios and this is because it is my second home, or to be more precise, my holiday home as we own a holiday house there and our family visit every year. I therefore feel well qualified to comment on it as a holiday destination and will try not to be too biased.
Búzios (the town's full name is Armação de Búzios) sits on the tip of a long, beach-rich peninsula jutting out into the clear blue Atlantic just 2 hours drive north of Rio de Janeiro.
Until the 1960s Búzios was a small, sleepy fishing village. Then Brigitte Bardot stumbled upon it's sandy beaches in 1964, and in the years since the little town has used the publicity to turn itself into one of Brazil's top beach resorts. On summer holiday weekends the town is packed with Brazilians on vacation, many Carioca ...
Advantages: Thrilling, Chilling Disadvantages: the sex scenes could have been little less
Well this is one freaky and scary movie. Its rather you have to fight to survive through the movie than to watch it.
This movie is completely about brutality. God knows what was goin through that directors mind while creating. The movie is packed with complete thrills, scenes which give you chills, goosebumps and some, which make you wanna puke. The violence and gore in the movie is just too horrific. You need to have a stable mind to watch the movie.
The actors in the movie, Jay Hernandez has acted very well. The story starts from a hostel in slovakia. The main character reaches this hostel and find two beautiful ladies there, Natalya and Svetlana. They somehow hangout with these females and end up pairing with them. The females distract the two of these friends by showing them good times. Slowly, these two friends find themselves ...
Advantages: Gore fans will love this, there are disgusting displays of death galore. Disadvantages: The film lacks substance, relies heavily on shock value and little else is offered.
Released in 2006, 'Hostel' was the third film directed by Eli Roth. Having heard good things and previously loved 'Cabin Fever' which Roth also directed I had been really looking forward to seeing this film, when I saw it however I felt nothing but disappointment. Many had praised the film for its gory and grotesque nature, and yes Eli Roth does indeed forefront blood and guts quite freely here but really there is very little substance to this film whatsoever. I like my horror films to have a bit of depth, something about them that makes them stand out as sensational; nothing of this sort is apparent here and 'Hostel' is a purely visual display of disgusting deaths.
