    Not going to write a review but just outline what I saw as IMO this flick isn't worth it.

    The only way I was going to see this was a screening to begin with, thus one fell into my lap. I went in with a negative attitude towards it since as previously stated this isn't my cup of tea...and after sitting through it my thoughts have not changed.

    Roth knows how to throw gore at the audience and this is no exception, however outside of that he seems quite unsure of what to do. Here you have characters you will not give two shits about in peril watching on as friends get devoured in gruesome ways. The movie quickly becomes a film where you just want them to all die quickly one after the other just to get it over with.

    There is CG used here that is downright laughable from a swarm of ants to other various animals, even including highly questionable shots of the jungle itself (although it was filmed on location ). Then it seems as though Roth has a soft spot for bodily functions. Explosive diarrhea anyone? Whatever small hopes this film had at being scary goes down the toilet, literally.

    Apparently this film has been complete for a long, long time. Should have stayed on the shelf.

    Those looking for some good gore/kills you will get it here but you have to sit through a very painful first 30 or 40 minutes. Other than that you will get nothing else but a few unintentional laughs.

    4/10

    Fright, just how long has this movie been completed? People with me had said they saw it once before all the way back in September of last year!

    This movie sucked. I would not be surprised if this ends up right on Blu or VOD.

    By all means! I would never want my opinion to sway someone away from a movie (except Septic Man).

    Don't forget Sharknado quality CGI ants and a jaguar!

    This POS has an official release date again, September 25th, 2015.
    It received an "R" rating without any cuts to the film and is releasing in 1,000 theaters and VOD at the same time.

    I used to love Roth, but he has done shit lately. I think this film will finally prove that he only had a few good ideas in him. If he can't generate a good remake (because this is basically cannibal holocaust), then he's done for.

    Well Blum House is who is distributing this from the article I read they say its a good match. So if its as shitty as Mac says then it makes sense cuz Blum House puts out a bunch of Shitty movies.

    There is no room for comedy in a movie like this. Now granted a lot of it is unintended laugh out loud moments which is a testament to how horrible it really is Roth makes his films with a light tone set throughout. No need to have any light-comedy spin at all. One would think a movie involving cannibals would not have this tone, especially with the "message" he is trying to send to the audience.

    There is no tension here. He spends a better part of half the movie trying to develop characters nobody will care about and are downright unlikable when they literally begin shitting and pissing themselves and getting butchered. Great practical effects aside the movie is abysmal. There is nothing scary about it, no tension built up, the true torture is sitting through 90 minutes of this.

    After all this time has passed I really hope the ant and jaguar CGI scenes are still in it

    I sort of liked the first Hostel, although it could of been better. Not an Eli roth fan and unless it is free I will never watch this movie

    Interesting, I didn't know it was a remake. Movie of the same name?
