'Never Seen It' - Episode 23 - Hmm, how much did we hate Hostel?

For years my wife Elizabeth Rosado and I have studiously avoided watching Eli Roth's surprisingly well-received 2005 "torture porn" film Hostel, but with Halloween around the corner and far too much time having passed since the last episode of our Never Seen It podcast, we figured we'd take a dive in.

And oh boy, is this movie a doozy. And while we may have had strong (a.k.a. negative views) about the movie, it did provoke some interesting side conversations about the Harvey Weinstein scandal and that nature of horror movies in general.

Click on the YouTube link below to listen to us rant and rave, and hopefully you'll think we had some smart things to say about this movie we just both watched for the first time this week.
