Hostel is a mature film for mature viewer

Feature by The Staff at Alphabet Video | 08 Oct 2007
Hostel 2

Following on directly from the first film, the action switches to three female backpackers who check into the deadly Slovakian hostel. Focusing this time on the torturers rather than their victims, Eli Roth has crafted another bleak, subversive, sometimes witty film, losing none of the original's grisly horror, and considered by many to be an improvement. A mature film for mature viewers, fans of the horror genre will be delighted with nods to the classics and some apt cameos.

Lost Season 3

After a slump in the ratings towards the end of season two, the producers have definitely upped their game and re-invigorated the show in its third season, but be warned as there are plenty of new mysteries to ponder over . Following on directly from last season Jack, Kate and Sawyer are held captive by the Others but can they escape? An audacious finale caps off the return-to-form of this tense, immersive drama.

Aqua Teen Hunger Force

A highly amusing big screen debut for Bravo's dysfunctional "superheroes" Frylock, Shake and Meatwad, as they assemble some murderous gym equipment called the Insane O Flex. A cult smash as part of the Adult Swim network, fans will be delighted to see returning characters like the Mooninites (my favourite), MC Pee Pants and the Cybernetic Ghost of Xmas Past from the Future. You might recognise some of the voices from Dangerdoom's Mouse & The Mask album.
