Hostel
(USA, 2005, 90 minutes)

Directed and written by Eli Roth; produced by Mike Fleiss, Eli Roth and Chris Briggs; music by Nathan Barr; director of photography, Milan Chadima; production and costume designer, Franco-Giacomo Carbone; special make-up effects created and supervised by Gregory Nicotero and Howard Berger; film editor, George Folsey Jr.
