Hostel: Part III

While the second movie did have a real tie in to the first (which as I have previously said, did not work out), this does not take any cues from it's predecessors. Which is a good thing and makes it slightly better for having a sort of spin off approach to it. There are false expectations and a lot of red herrings, some might annoy you, because you might see them coming a long time before they arrive, but overall, this achieves what it set out to do.

While not as great as part 1, it does achieve something that part 2 never had: A connection (even if it's a small one) with our main characters. Too many twists get that a bit out of control, but overall this is worth a watch, with a different director this time around to ensure a different result/approach

I didn't hold out much hope for this sequel to what I thought was a pretty good movie the first time out. The second one was up there as well and I enjoyed them both. This one just didn't hit the spot and was a bit disappointing.

Unlike the first two being set in a foreign country this one is set in Las Vegas and that is, I think the first mistake. The second mistake is the lack of blood and gore and fairly tame violence up until the last 10 minutes of the movie.

There were a few twists that gave me a few enjoyable surprises. I especially liked the one in the first 6 minutes of the movie. The others while nice were not totally unexpected.

Some of the ideas were good, but I felt that the tame way in which some of the victims were killed just didn't fit with the Hostel theme that was set by the first two.

Hostel was gritty and edgy, with a fine cast and well executed. Hostel 3 however is lacking in all of these features. Cheapens the franchise.

The twist in the first scene was excellent. The rest of it was disgusting but if you're going to watch Histek, what do you expect

Hostel 3 has absolutely no reference to Eli Roth. That's the first hint you get that this probably isn't exactly the sequel you are hoping for.

The movie sets about the same story that was featured in the previous 2 parts only this time uses actors and actresses who aren't exactly gifted. I've seen my fair share of horror, good and bad, and this definitely qualifies as a bad movie.

The acting is poor, the story a quick rehash of the stuff we've already seen and once the gore hits its actually uninspired and with a total lack of anxiety for us as viewers.

You'd be better off looking at "A Lonely Place To Die" or "Kill List". Im sorry for everyone involved, but in short: avoid!
