jymmymack Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 ... I'd be excited for Scream even if I saw it for miles. ... or Evil Dead... or Poltergeist... or ofcourse TRICK R TREAT. Just sayin'. The property just isn't something to be excited about. I literally had no reaction hearing the news. At least for The Thing, I was like "yesssss" on the inside and we've BEEN KNOWING that was coming. If they ever pull Poltergeist I will literally crappy my pants and die, in that order. I would give anything to hear a SA say "you left the bodies and you only moved the headstones!" Sorry to pull us off-topic. Please, proceed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorrorNights93 Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 I'm actually glad to hear hostel will be coming to horror nights. I don't think i really had any reaction for the first two because we talk about them so much that it felt that they were for sure coming lol. Now in relation to Saw i can see the only things being reused is 1) a few props and 2) the same idea of walking through scenes and watching victims get tortured while distracting you from a scare opportunity. Other than that i'm excited to see the possible environments they'll be using, characters, effects,gore level etc. Now i'm sure they'll utilize the elite with chainsaws in a SZ protecting the entrance to the warehouse but it would be even cooler to see them used in the maze. We haven't really had a chainsaw scare in a maze since TCM and if they do some similar scares that would be pretty cool. All in all i cant complain on this maze its something NEW, probably one of the most important components i wanted to see this year. therefore i'm going to give this maze a chance first and if i don't like it well that will be a different story. I'm sure Murdy and his team are gonna take the gore to a different level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorrorNights93 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 well a hostel SZ of elites is out of the question.... @HorrorNights will hostel have its own SZ? i remember you saying something about a maze/SZ combination ? @hhn09 no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH316 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Good, I think that would be stupid since the society is supposed to be in secret, not running around terrorizing people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

00nightcrawler Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Eh, this should be ok. There isn't much in terms of environments or cool visuals or even a recognizable killer, but it should be a visceral and gory maze that's fun to go through. And I would definitely take this over a third year of Saw. So yeah... not much I have to say about this one. Hostel part 2 sucks, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTH316 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 @HorrorNights Will there be a lot of topless women in the maze? The movie has a lot of that Mrs Bathory The only good part from Hostel 2 has been confirrrrrrmed. When do we get to see THAT concept art? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Murder Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I am not a huge fan of Hostel and therefore was not overly pumped about the maze announcement, but I was never a huge fan of the Saw franchise either and the mazes were great so I am officially stoked to see what they do with this. I'm sure the gore gags will be sufficiently over-the-top and the environment/setting will probably be the most straight-up scary, dread-inducing of any maze this year. There was something about Saw that really made you feel helpless and I expect the same feeling from Hostel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HHN1973 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Everyone bags on Saw which was always one of my favorite mazes it was a total immersion enviroment down to the smells. If Hostel is anything like that I would rank it as a good maze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thoroughly enjoyed both Saw mazes, despite the fact that the second one was only slightly tweaked. Also, I guess I get the similarities of an industrial warehouse type setting and lots of gore but other than that the two films are very different. This maze is not going to be Saw 3. I'm sure they will be comparable in various ways but I fully expect Hunting Season to be an exciting, original and thoroughly terrifying maze.

Tmrw Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 I shall tell you all like this, Forget what you've seen with SAW:Game Over/On Remember this is an entirely different movie, YES there is torture traps, BUT the whole surrounding lair the inside of the Hostel, the place where "Fantasies, Pleasure , and Pain" all drift into one, I recently went back and watched both movies and I can assure you this maze WILL BE BETTER than Saw the mixture of Atmosphere, Adrenaline, Torture and Seclusion will make this maze 10000x better than what we've had before they may both be torture porn movies, but both have different premises Saw gave the people a chance to live, the idea of one to realize what they've done made them pay for their actions With Hostel, once your set in your done for, there's no escape, they pay for you to be hooked up and tortured by any means of their choice, Chainsaw, Knifes, Razors, and the best part of it all NO PIGS!!!

DTH316 Posted August 25, 2011 Share Posted August 25, 2011 Better than Saw? Hm... I don't know... Saw is in my top 3... and I loved both years. Gonna be hard to top that, especially with other amazing contenders this year like The Thing or possibly La Llorona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grindhousehero13 Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 I wonder if the gang of little kids will be represented in this maze and on a side note looks like this maze is gonna be filled with Shadow gags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScreamAtMe Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 To clarify, not filled. He said one for the facade a la Halloween 2 years ago, and one inside the maze. Less than the number of those "micronap" things they pulled in NOEM last year. I love shadow gags personally, its a classic and when pulled off right, it has a huge effect on the ambiance.

Trevler Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 I think Hostel might actually enter from the other side of the lower lot this year, near the Mummy. Transformers construction is completely blocking the old route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
