I enjoyed the movie, thought it was a good laugh, but one thing annoyed me. The film was set in Hungary, yet the only Eastern European characters were overly stereotyped terrorist types and hookers. Why do horror films such as hostel and more recently this one continue to paint stereotypes of eastern Europeans as barbaric and evil? I think its an unhealthy image that is being used more and more. Aside from that I thought it was a funny original concept, supported by a pretty solid cast, and had some hilarious dialogue, the "trying to fit the leg in the fridge" scene had me in stitches, and there was some clever digs at the arms industry. Just wish they could been have a bit more subtle with the sterotyping. Still nice to see some original comedy/horror film making from the UK!
