Default 'Hostel: Director's Cut' - High-Def Digest review

Just posted Peter's review of 'Hostel.' He says this new Blu-ray version from Sony is certainly everything a fan could want -- sharp video and audio, plus a ton of supplements.

Full review here:

Sweet news. Now if it only wasn't still 3 weeks away from release date it would be even better!

I must have have been living in a cave the last few years because I haven't seen this one or the sequel (I know, I know) . Will have to borrow my friends SD version tonight so I can decide to get the Blu. He say's they're good. I like the genre, so I should like it.

Went to my Best Buy and they had Hostel and Hostel 2 out on the shelf. When I went to the counter Hostel scanned up as Cannot Sell Till Dec 31st. They wouldn't let me pick it up but I got Hostel 2. Happen to anyone else? I'm going to try other stores later on just only had time to go to the one.

I got them just fine. The clerks never notice it, every friday I get tuesday's new releases, or at least some of them, they never notice the do not sell thing.

They must have been mistaken.. why have 20 copies of hostel 1 out if they can't sell it. lol.

Great movie overall. Just finished watching it. Hell of an improvement over SD. I love torture porn movies.

Is that weird.

All I know is, "I'm the King of the Swing!"

Can't wait for Hostel 1 and 2 to arrive tomorrow.

Dead Pixel - I work at Future Shop, at the end of my shift yesterday I went to purchase Hostel and the same thing happened, we have a system so that if the release day is in the future our system will not let us sell it, I assume that is to make sure we don't ever sell anything we shouldn't, Best Buy probably has the same system, going to check it again when I go in today
