There has been a degree of controversy surrounding the violence in Hostel Part II, with critics in some corners arguing that it amounts to "torture porn." While I'll be the first to admit that Hostel Part II isn't a good film, it's a horror movie,...

It's surprising that Warner Brothers has elected to release such a bad movie in the midst of the hottest box office season - flotsam of this nature is normally unceremoniously dumped in February or September. There's hardly an area in which H...
