| - I love a good scare. Being familiar with Eli Roth's work and his penchant for gore, it was a no-brainer to check out his Goretorium conveniently located across the street from where we were staying, the Cosmopolitan, while Carol W and I were in town on vacation. We had discount passes from Travelzoo, so it made for a much less, almost Vegas local priced, albeit still not cheap, hours worth of entertainment. I won't give up any spoilers, but suffice it to say, there's good fun from beginning to end. To be honest, Eli Roth's Goretorium is more shock & gore than actually scary. The gf and I actually found ourselves laughing, but in a good way, as we enjoyed the clever, "haunted house" that utilized Hollywood-style makeup and special effects to create an immersive "goretorium". If you want to be scared, then take a pass on this. If gore mixed with the occasional good startle gets your pulse going, then Eli Roth's Goretorium is for you. However, check it out now, because I can't see this place staying in business for too much longer since Halloween is a long way away.
