This isn't a movie this is a snuff film.., 5 September 2009
2/10
Author: jamesoshea91 from United Kingdom

I consider my self an avid horror fan and can sit through anything but when it comes to a movie like hostel then i find myself turning away,much like i did with this rip off of hostel. I don't know what is so appealing about sitting for over 90 minutes and watching people being tortured,in my opinion horror has sunk soooo low its unbelievable, Hollywood has run out of ideas so they resort to torture, what makes it worse is that it barely has a story, couple of kids get caught on a train, and on this train is a bunch of people harvesting people for organs, now i know what you thinking it must be hard to operate properly riding on a bumpy train, but no thats OK because the easy way it to make a cut in you then rip you apart with your bare hands just tear those organs out of you the old fashioned way.

So we have kids having fun on a train then we have the main characters boyfriend getting caught and murdered and then a search starts and during that search they get picked of one by one, get tortured then we have the running away then the torturing then the last guy standing smacks the villain with a weapon and instead of killing him off,guess what...he runs away inevitably getting caught and killed and then there's torture, a girl hanging by her mouth on a hook while missing a leg.

So there torture, running,screaming,knuckle dusters to th face,baseball bats to the head, more running more screaming and guess what more torture. I don't see the appeal sitting watching organs getting pulled out and mince human meat all over the place, its disgusting and un-entertaining, if your squeamish don't watch i found myself gagging.

It makes you wonder, if you enjoy this, would you have any problem watching a real snuff film?? Or would you even know the difference??
