After watching terrifier,inbred and all the most violent movies I randomly saw this movie witch was so violent and that's the reason I watched it honestly it's a pretty interesting POV horror movie.

This 2013 movie titled "Hotel Inferno" definitely was something else. It was unique, to say the least. I hadn't heard about it prior to now in 2021, as I had the opportunity to sit down and watch it. So I wasn't sure what to expect from the movie, though I can't really claim that I was overly thrilled about reading that the movie was filmed in first person point of view. But still, it was a movie that I hadn't already seen, so of course I sat down to watch it. Especially since I am a big fan of horror movies, and I must admit that the movie's cover was actually sort of interesting. While the 2013 movie from writer and director Giulio De Santi was watchable and something else in comparison to many other movies, then I just had a hard time really getting into the movie. Why? Well, I suppose it was the first person point of view, mixed with a fairly bland storyline and rather dubious special effects. Sure, the movie had the heart and spirit in the right place, but the execution - pardon the pun - of the movie's transition from script to screen just didn't really manage to impress me. There is a good amount of blood and gore in "Hotel Inferno", but sadly the special effects were not overly impressive, and definitely hadn't the feel or look to it for a movie made in 2013. Nay, it felt more like a low budget movie from the early 1990s. For a horror movie then "Hotel Inferno" was just somewhat of a bland experience. This is not really a movie that I would put on top of the to-watch-list, as there are far better movies out there that would provide you with an abundance more enjoyment and entertainment. My rating of "Hotel Inferno" lands on a bland five out out ten stars. The movie was watchable, and definitely had some interesting aspects to it, but ultimately writer and director Giulio De Santi just didn't deliver something outstanding here.

Undertaking a mission for a client, a hitman starts to become worried about the logistics of what's going on and starts to back out, forcing his employer to spring a trap on him where he soon is encountered by a string of merciless beings and enemies out to kill him any way they can. This was a fairly enjoyable and creative effort. The fact that this one is shot in a point-of-view manner is the best asset for this one, making for a much different and unique experience than expected. Utterly forced on principle to be up-close and personal to the proceedings as the filmmaking tactics demand the actor be a central figure to what's happening around him and it results in a chilling setup to play out. As the confrontations and various situations presented here offer a near video-game experience with the way they focus on interacting here, it develops an immediacy to the action that becomes quite immersive as time goes on. That becomes evident in the film's hallmark where it's all about the gore and brutality as it goes along. The fact that the gore is a fine mix of over-the-top practical splatter and CGI enhancements creates a fine atmosphere of extreme and graphic bloodshed, ranging from having skulls ripped open, limbs being blasted off, decapitations, stabbings, impalements and getting their fingers smashed with a massive hammer among much more barbaric sequences. The constant nature of this bloodshed manages to offer up the kind of blood-drenched atmosphere that's immensely appealing, which goes alongside all the fine make-up on the creatures to give the film a lot to like. There are some big issues with this one. The main issue is the over-the-top nature of the shooting style wearing thin quite easily. The jumpiness of the transitions here imitates a video game on autopilot where it focuses on intense action for a brief moment only to have someone off-screen explain what's going on or make vague threats about what's to come. The need to constantly turn around and look at everything going on merely to showcase what's happening in unnatural moments is a comical overstatement and readily makes for a cheesy time here. Given the fact that it's all the way through the film, this can be a little much and brings it down somewhat. Rated Unrated/R: Extreme Graphic Violence and Extreme Graphic Language.

Fun movie and while a few of the effects are a little off the overall effort is exceptional. The the only real problem are the hands of the point of view character . He has hands like a kept woman. I mean he must moisturize every hour on the hour. There is no character in the hands. The exposition scene in the room of flies is very well done. All in all a very well made project with budget spent on real FX.. no computer work here..

My quick rating 4,8/10. Pretty silly plot with some non-existent acting. That really isn't the point of this movie, the point is to watch what is a first person shooter game that has been put on celluloid (OK, old term, but I am old). This movie is over the top with completely fake looking gore and stupid bad guys, just like a game. That is the novelty and that is the only place it gets points from me, beyond that, this movie sucks. Watch it for that reason alone, don't laugh when you hear the main character speak, he is supposed to sound like a moron. Not worth typing enough,even for IMDb today,so enjoy,or don't, up to you. Guess I changed my mind, this was enough for IMDb, short and sweet....

Clearly inspired by Hardcore Henry (2016). This is a first person view flick the whole time were we follow a killer going on a hunt in a hotel but becomes the hunted. The director Giulio De Santi is known for his gory cult flick Adam Chaplin (2011) but this one here is a rather boring flick. The story is very simple and the last twenty minutes it's all talking and explaining. So for people who want to see a good old horror, forget it BUT of course this flick do deliver on the gory stuff. To be honest, you only watch it for the gore, smashing heads, shooting heads, stabbing, breaking bones, explosions on bodies, you get it, one for the gorehounds. Sadly, I don't have a prob with ultra gore but you need a story to keep you attracted to the screen but as I said, gorehounds will love it. For me it didn't deliver what I thought it would e, weak story, strong on gore. Gore 5/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 0/5 Comedy 0/5

I abso-bloody-lutely loved Necrostorm's first movie Adam Chaplin, directed by and starring Emanuele De Santi, but was rather disappointed by their follow up, Taeter City, which was helmed by Chaplin's special effects man Giulio De Santi: it tried hard to impress, but simply didn't work anywhere near as well as a whole, despite once again featuring tons of superb splatter. But I'm a generous kind of guy, always willing to give a film-maker a second chance to impress, and with Hotel Inferno, impress me De Santi most certainly has. As Yoda might say. If he watched gore films. Shot entirely in first-person POV, Hotel Inferno is quite unlike anything I have ever witnessed before. Sure, I've seen first-person POV employed sparingly in films like Doom and House of the Dead, but never has it been used as fully or so effectively as it is here, the viewer being fully immersed in the action from start to incredibly bloody finish. Quite how De Santi pulls off some of his technical trickery is simply mind-boggling, the whole film feeling like one long take during which numerous foes are dispatched in graphic fashion by the film's anti-hero Frank Zimosa, the hit-man through whose eyes we witness the action. Zimosa (Rayner Bourton) has been hired by mysterious businessman Jorge Mistrandia (Michael Howe) to kill a couple currently staying in a fancy schmancy hotel in some strange, unspecified foreign country. Mistrandia, who keeps in contact with Zimosa via high-tech glasses that relay everything the hit-man sees, insists that the kills be carried out in a ritualistic manner with specific weapons. Always the professional, Zimosa obeys, but becomes concerned when his second intended victim displays some worrying symptoms before he has even been touched, spewing blood and pus all over the bathroom while mumbling about 'She' being 'fed on pain'. Suspecting that something is seriously wrong, the hit-man decides to split, but Mistrandia has other ideas and sends other killers to prevent Zimosa from leaving the hotel. What follows is an hour and a quarter of extreme, jaw dropping brutality, with the plot taking strange turns into the world of the occult, pitting Zimosa against an army of deformed zombie-like creatures and—in the manner of the video games that it so closely emulates—an end-of-level boss that is super powerful and seriously freaky. Admittedly, the film loses focus in the final act and feels a little longer than it really needs to be, but overall this is a very impressive piece of horror cinema—innovative, exciting, and oh-so-incredibly-gory!
