Is anything in this movie original? I mean, come on now, the intro and outro are from Plan 9 from Outer Space. Also, the plot is essentially Hostel on American soil. The guys use the words "gay" and "fag" as pejoratives several times in addition to swearing too much. Really?! Did this movie need gay- bashing and homophobia to make the audience realize that these young men are unlikable? No, not so much.The guys are annoying with their talking over each other, drunken antics, trashing the posh hotel room, treatment of each other, and assertion that women are only good for one thing: their sexual gratification. I couldn't care less about any of the characters, so why should I have any kind of emotional response when the guys start falling victim to the organ-harvesting doctor/surgeon at the brothel? In fact, I cheered, because they were finally going to stop whining, moaning, complaining, and picking fights with each other. Okay, everybody's dead. Lame excuse for a movie is over. Yay! Don't waste your time on this one. It's not worth it unless you just want to laugh at how awful it is or provide your own Rifftrax, which would be fun.

I am a big fan of found footage movies... This isn't one that I would suggest, but it is one that could have been so much more.The biggest mistake for me was the all of a sudden floating cam just before the strippers went at it. It took completely away from the found footage vantage point, if there is only one or two cameras, you have to stick with that.Acting was average, but the girls were good looking.A few people here mentioned that it was a Hostel copy, it was in the feeling that the beginning of the movie had, but not in the plot, the plot was organ thieves in this movie, in Hostel the plot was pay to kill someone. I feel it was trying to pull from that movie a bit, also from The Hangover in the sense of having a wild crazy night, except this time with horror rather than comedy.In the end, this movie gets 0 stars in my opinion, but I think someone should pick up the rights to re-make it with better actors, more gore and a way way way better villain. Add some shock scares, more nudity and more gore! Then you got a movie.

This was just god awful!!! Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this movie - direct to DVD. It's a birthday party celebration in Vegas that you'll have wished never happened! The acting is beyond atrocious, the music is terrible, the hand-held camera thing is derivative, the kills are bland and very cost effective, and the script really lame. The killer in this is soooo dumb and the characters all grind on your nerves. There is no tension, no gore, nothing scary, nothing humorous, nothing! They totally "ATTEMPTED" to rip off Hostel but not in a good way. It's junk like this that is so insulting, to think that these filmmakers, if you can call them that, believed that they could piggy back off of decent horror films like Hostel, and try to sell audiences cheap toilet paper is just a slap in the face. I actually feel dumber for having watched this movie. Save yourself some angst and a few brain cells and skip this movie.

Stripped is just plain horrible, and not in a scary way, even by Z-movie standards. It feels and plays like a bad student film project with a three thousand dollar budget. It takes place in Las Vegas and involves murderous strippers luring people to to a remote location to "strip" them of their organs.The writing is lame, the dialogue is cliché, and it doesn't even have those wonderfully corny one-liners you usually get in that type of movie. The acting is laughable and doesn't even reach TV Soap quality, which would have been nice here actually. Worse, all the characters are annoying. The suspense and enjoyment are non-existent, and the movie (at 80 minutes) felt twice as long as it actually is, and this is from someone who usually enjoys those kind of movies as long as there's some cleverness, enthusiasm and talent behind it. This review is already too long for such a piece of manure. Don't get suckered by the cover art. Don't expect good titillation, gore or fun. Don't pay it, don't even watch it for free. If you already did, then you now understand what I meant. You want something good in a similar vein, rent Lesbian Vampire Killers instead.Great Dane
