Hostel II - going too far?
I'm not slagging Tarantino so much because of the violence, more the terrible scripts he comes out with. I never said Tarantino's films were typically graphic. I watched Reservoir Dogs at the cinema when it came out, I know the camera pans away, which is why I refered to the more suggestive element of his and Roth's films.
They are comparable by the fact they both seem overly fascinated with torture and both used it as the centrepiece of their debut films.
I liked Reservoir Dogs, but after that it was all down hill. Pulp Fiction was just bobbins, I hate that film especially the crappy burger dialogue at the start. Saw bits of Kill Bill 2 and that seemed not too bad.

Hostel II - going too far?
i think the whole horror genre has gone to far. i mean come on how many damn films are they gonna make about people gettting hacked up to death, i dont watch horror films because they all seem pretty much the same to me they all pretty much have the same plot and it gets old. they way i see if you have seen one you've pretty much seen them all

You are then captured and then they have you strapped to a chair, with your head covered so you dont even know wtf is going on. Then your tortured to death. Now this is some peoples fears. I mean could you imagin having this happen to you? thats what makes it a horror film not just because their blood in it.
if you stay in this mind frame, you may never be able to appreciate horror movies.
but i guess that is why their are many different movies out their.

But most notice when they are manipulated easily so why put yourself at risk of becoming a mass murder because the tv did it. i mean come on how stupid does that sound? I killed a bunch of people when i was 12 because i saw it on tv. so your going to tell me kids that watch gangsters on television with guns, its going to make them want to buy one to be cool? The kids with guns now a days don't even have television and live on the streets. Next you will be saying rap music is the lead cause to gangs...
plz no hard feelings just felt like doing some healthy debating.. :-)

village voice > news > From Birth of a Nation to Natural Born Killers, movies have been blamed for real-world violence. Michael Atkinson tests the link. by Michael Atkinson
here is a link with many movies in it, that were followed by copycat killers. or rapes.
You will notice that most of these killers are children who followed the films.
Who were watching these kids? who are these kids parents? and why are they watching these films when they are not even of age. Is this the movies fault? or the PARENTAL guardians. They did not mention anything about their past family history. You can not just throw a child into the world and expect them to know everything if their parents where not around how would of they known? by basic instinct? Right that is why their are 11 and 12 year olds still sticking forks into the electoral outlet..
