My name is Tommy. I'm a 21-year-old college student from the primitive wilds of Kentucky who really likes horror films. Like, a lot. This blog is my tribute to them. It features creepy pictures, gifs, reviews, ramblings and fiction.

30 Day Horror Challenge - Day 01 A horror movie that delivered a scary theater experience. Hostel was the first horror film I saw in a theater. I was fifteen years old, and I was just starting to get into the genre. It was an experience. It doesn’t exactly hold up, now. I’ve seen a lot of movies since then, and Hostel’s torture gimmick doesn’t really work anymore. Strip that gimmick away, and you’re left with some boring characters in a really scary scenario. It’s not that good, but it’s not bad, either. That said, when I first saw it, it felt like the most brutal movie ever. I was pretty shook up by the whole ordeal. It was fun. I don’t care for it much, now—I’d rather watch Eli Roth’s first film, Cabin Fever—but I’ll always think of Hostel as one of the four films that made me love horror. =]
