"I don't think it's really that exciting to hear about me buying cat food..." - some of us would beg to differ, but I like hearing grocery store horror stories.
Double-negatives rule!
I'm a bit afraid to watch "Hostel", and I kind of like gory scary psychopathic movies. But if you've watched it fifty billion times and you live next door to a weirdo with a killing factory, then I guess I'll sack up and rent it on my days off.
Well, it really wasn't eventful--I just had to go to the store right after I woke up because I was out of cat fud and I was still kind of asleep in the store.
There are some definite squicky moments in Hostel but I think it's not too hard to watch (obviously!).
I am also glad I'm not furniture or decorative items.
How charming is this voice post? Too too much. I had a smile on the entire time I was listening to it--except the part about your uncle, I hope he gets well soon--and I laughed at "killing factory". Your "bye-bye now" was sexy.
Hostel was so friggin good. I haven't listened to any of the commentary, but it seemed to me that what those skeevy fucking boys were doing wasn't all that different from the "hunters".
I loved all the little Tarentino and Miike bits as well.
Oh, definitely--the commodifiers (I know words!) become the commodities. Like the part with Josh saying in Amsterdam that he doesn't see the appeal of going into a room and doing whatever you want to someone. Also, I think the American businessman is kinda like foreshadowing of what Paxton could have become. I'm very interested to see what Paxton's like in the sequel.
And I love me some Miike. Quentin, too--I'm glad I finally spotted his cameo, as well as Roth's.
IMDB says that it's him in the scene at the pub where Natalya and Svetlana look so jacked up but I can't find corroboration anywhere else (and of course, IMDB is not always known for accuracy). It does look like him, though.
Ohmygosh. My Hostel DVD came this morning and I've just watched all the documentary segments, and I am so desperately in love with Eli Roth, Derek Richardson and Milda Havlas. Just. Love. So much.
Oh, I need to watch that again. I think I'm going to go get some breakfast, watch that, and then watch the Eli commentary again. And finish my "Horror Movies I Have Not Liked" list.
Interesting post! That neighbor? Sounds creepy. Thankfully you weren't attacked or anything, haha! What with all of those horror movies you watched, that would instill some kind of fear in me :p!
He *is* creepy. That's the problem with the movies--I'm not usually scared while I'm watching them; it's always afterward when I'm walking to my car or whatever.

I'm glad you're not a lampshade!
