Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

befoulmetalroosa This isn't the typical 'found footage' film. No ghosties, ghoulies, three-legged beasties and things going bump in the night. This is a whole new level to organ harvesting. The first half of the film was quite funny. The four young men acted as retarded and testosterone-fueled as young men normally do when faced with a trip to Vegas. On the way, they stop and pick up the best friend/casual screw girl of one of the men, because she wants to meet her full time boyfriend there. They get there, and frivolity and revelry ensues. They get massively drunk and phone a local whorehouse for directions and an appointment.That's when everything goes wrong, both with the trip and the movie. Up until then, it was a fun and mildly humorous flick, enjoyable for the homage to the ribald buddy movies of Hollywood. Once you get into the slice and dice portion of the film, it rapidly descends into truly wretched torture porn. The 'doctor' who does the harvesting skulks around in the dark warehouse with a surgical mask covering the lower half of his face for the entire second half. He's not even mildly interesting, nor is he really creepy, which defeats the purpose of having him there in the first place. The whores are passably pretty, with the exception of the woman who takes the birthday boy downstairs for a private dance. There's just something stunningly beautiful about a woman who really loves to dance. The way she moves her body is musical. That was the only good part to the whole second half. The blonde was simply breathtaking in the way she moved her body, and the rapturous expression on her face elevated it to another level. It was a good effort, but could've done without much of the second half.

lukejbarnett2002 This film is about a group of guys who go to Vegas to get some Escorts. After they get them they find out that the whorehouse has deadly repercussions for them.This film is well directed, has a good pacing, has good acting, it has such a great, creative, fresh, original feel to it, and mostly gets things right as far as keeping you entertained. This is a very well made film. I was really impressed with the professional way it was directed, written, and paced. It had believable, relatable, realistic characters, scary villains, good tension, good acting, clever, realistic dialogue, and a good, fresh, inventive way of filming and presenting it.The important thing to know about this film is the characters are well fleshed out, unique, and real feeling. You get to know the characters quite well before the killings start. The characters don't feel clichéd at all. They don't act immature for their age. They feel like real, authentic early 20 year old men and woman. It could of had a better ending and way of showing the characters as they were being killed as far as making them seem more real(their personalities weren't shown that much in the scenes where they were killed)and it could've explained more about the motives of the killers, but overall it was really impressive and better than most horror films made nowadays. It has an authentic feel because of the POV, homemade, camcorder way of showing things happening. Most of the film has a found footage, POV perspective to it which makes the things that happen seem more real and convincing. One of the most important things that makes this an above average horror film is the main characters truly felt real, varied, unique, and likable. They felt like real people who act like most men their age do. That level of honesty and authenticity is usually sorely missed in horror films made nowadays. They each had unique characteristics and ways of acting. Another thing is there is a creative twist at the end which gives you a different perspective on what happens at the end of it. This twist is very stylish, very intelligent, extremely original, and very creative, which is in line with this consistently creative film.It's almost never boring and never is stale in how it feels. It keeps you intrigued and invested in everything that happens to the characters. It makes you care for the main characters when bad things start to happen to them. And, that's the main key to what makes a good film and the main difference between this fine film and most of the other horror films made nowadays.

Maria Fahlsing Is anything in this movie original? I mean, come on now, the intro and outro are from Plan 9 from Outer Space. Also, the plot is essentially Hostel on American soil. The guys use the words "gay" and "fag" as pejoratives several times in addition to swearing too much. Really?! Did this movie need gay- bashing and homophobia to make the audience realize that these young men are unlikable? No, not so much.The guys are annoying with their talking over each other, drunken antics, trashing the posh hotel room, treatment of each other, and assertion that women are only good for one thing: their sexual gratification. I couldn't care less about any of the characters, so why should I have any kind of emotional response when the guys start falling victim to the organ-harvesting doctor/surgeon at the brothel? In fact, I cheered, because they were finally going to stop whining, moaning, complaining, and picking fights with each other. Okay, everybody's dead. Lame excuse for a movie is over. Yay! Don't waste your time on this one. It's not worth it unless you just want to laugh at how awful it is or provide your own Rifftrax, which would be fun.

bgoldberg62 This was just god awful!!! Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this movie - direct to DVD. It's a birthday party celebration in Vegas that you'll have wished never happened! The acting is beyond atrocious, the music is terrible, the hand-held camera thing is derivative, the kills are bland and very cost effective, and the script really lame. The killer in this is soooo dumb and the characters all grind on your nerves. There is no tension, no gore, nothing scary, nothing humorous, nothing! They totally "ATTEMPTED" to rip off Hostel but not in a good way. It's junk like this that is so insulting, to think that these filmmakers, if you can call them that, believed that they could piggy back off of decent horror films like Hostel, and try to sell audiences cheap toilet paper is just a slap in the face. I actually feel dumber for having watched this movie. Save yourself some angst and a few brain cells and skip this movie.
