  Hostel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Despite the openness of modern hostels, the majority of guests are traditionally and overwhelmingly between the ages of 18 and 26.
There are still hostels in some countries that have a curfew, daytime lockouts, and/or require occupants to do chores, but as hostels adapt to meet the changing expecatations of guests these are becoming less and less common.
One potential drawback to staying in hostel dormitories is difficulty sleeping because of noise, whether from snoring, someone returning to the room late in the evening, or just general noise from one's living surroundings.

 Hostel Movie Review at Hollywood Video
The Slovakian village we see in Hostel is a grim, corrupt town populated by street gangs of feral children, amoral femme fatales and stone-faced thrill killers; it's enough to make one long for the good ol' days under Stalin.
Roth and Co. reveal that the scenes in the dank basement of the factory were actually shot in the dank basement of a circa-1910 mental hospital.
Hostel isn't for the faint of heart or the weak of stomach.

 Hostel (2006): Reviews
What prevents Hostel from fully harnessing the suspense factor in its rising action, climax, and conflict resolution is the insufficient impetus to pity or to feel too badly for Paxton and Josh.
Hostel certainly delivers in the gore department, and Roth, who knows and loves his favorite genre at least as well as the gang over at the Alamo Drafthouse, peppers the proceedings with various witty in-jokes.
Hostel is motivated by an adolescent urge to shock.

There's a really happening hostel there, too, the kid says, one that "you won't find in any guide." Morons that they are, Paxton, Josh and Oli hop a train and are soon making the scene.
Sure enough, upon checking into the hostel, they find themselves sharing a large room with two girls, Natalya (the glorious Barbara Nedeljáková) and Svetlana (Jana Kaderabková), who are, as advertised, incredibly beautiful, and not completely committed to the wearing of clothes.
"Hostel" was shot in the environs of Prague by Czech cinematographer Milan Chadima, and along with its Kafkaesque element of malignant collusion among the villagers, the movie has a distinctive Bohemian atmosphere that is by turns rustically picturesque and deliciously grim and dismal.

 No geek is an island » Hostel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Writer-director Eli Roth’s second film, Hostel, is an improvement on his enjoyable but relatively unremarkable debut Cabin Fever.
Hostel seems closer in content and style to British horror films of the 1970s than the usual American slasher fare - and, occasionally, a voyeurism that it also shares with 70s horror - but with a slickness that’s suitable modern.
This is a dangerous thing as there are even bigger problems with the whole art and pornography argument than there are in the art and censorship debate, I will not go into that here as I have covered this topic already, see here.

Written & Directed by Eli Roth, Presented by Quentin Tarantino, HOSTEL is a mixture of many of the most terrifying things about human nature and the world at large, culled from many impossible-but-true stories of human trafficking, international organized crime, and sex tourism.
HOSTEL tells the story of two American college buddies Paxton and Josh who backpack through Europe eager to make hazy travel memories with new friend Oli, an Icelander they’ve met along the way.
Paxton, Josh, and Oli are eventually lured by a fellow traveler to what’s described as a nirvana for American backpackers –; a particular hostel in an out-of-the-way Slovakian town stocked with Eastern European women as desperate as they are gorgeous.

Hostel has also been subject to further criticism by film critics as sadistic and horrific beyond redemption regardless of Roth's excuses, often cited as an exemplification of the current shift of mainstream consciousness into the amusement of watching people suffer horrific deaths.
