Hostel (2005)
Worst Horror I've ever seen
Ever since I began to watch the movie, I've had this strange feeling about the movie. The most weird thing about the movie was that you couldn't see anything up to after the second half of the movie. At first, it even reminded me of Euro Trip. However, suddenly you could see a scene where one of the main characters ends up in a torture chamber. Reason? Who knows? I don't for sure... My overall opinion is: This movie sucks. It lacks any kind of conception, a true story, violence without even a little reason (a kind of art, or what they did say in the movie). I'm really sorry that the Czechs gave their actors, their resources, and even one of their villages to the film. The whole movie represents them as a wholeheartedly corrupt and deceived nation which allows anything to happen in their country and which has murderous children wandering on the streets, who kill even in exchange for a bag of chewing gums. One more thing which I don't understand is that how did they end up in a village in Bohemia (Czech Republic), when they were heading to Bratislava, which is in Slovakia....
Pityke (1980)
Hungarian educational cartoon from the 80s
Pityke is a cartoon series about public safety issues (i.e. that thumbing a lift can be dangerous and so on) in the 80s of Hungary. Pityke is a police officer commanded by a robot general. He's the one in charge in patrolling an area. The episodes are short (about 6-7 minutes each), however, it is a very good cartoon series despite the fact that it has been made in times of Kádár's "goulash communism", when Hungary began adapting capitalism (i.e. Kádár legalized handicraft and market gardening for individuals and began importing goods from the West), and because of this it was the most liberal communist country in the World.
Macskafogó (1986)
You just can't dislike it
I've seen this movie as a small kid, yet I just can't believe it has been made in the 80's at the time of Hungarian Goulash communism. At this time communism was still present, but it was the most liberal regime of them all, thus movies/cartoons like this one were created. Because of this you can feel the atmosphere of that era throughout the movie.
The story is quite a grotesque one: On Planet X, occupied by mice and cats, there is year 100 A.M.M. (after Mickey Mouse), and the conflicts between the cats and mice are rising. However, there is one last hope in Pokyo, the success of which lies in the hands of an Intermouse secret agent Grabovsky...
