Recently I posted a review about the Italian horror film Suspiria. That review exposed (in a non gratuitous Boob shot kind of way) how my fetish for horror came to be.

I was hesitant to watch the first Hostel, thinking it may be too much like SAW which I had a real problem with. Too real. Too gross. Too twisted.

I cannot handle nightmares of sociopaths wanting to sell my innards on the black market.

Or to kill me for the sheer joy of it. That would suck.
