Looking for a good time, two friends on a trip to Barcelona befriend a couple of girls but it’s not fun they find, instead they get trapped in a house haunted by a devilish ghost bent on tearing apart anyone that enters her dwelling.

It is what it is
Most of the bad reviews seem to either be because they don't like found footage films or because the reviewer can't identify with the two male protagonists. Fwiw, I don't know why that should be such a problem. Is this really a 4* film? No, but I feel generous, since it doesn't really deserve all the hate. It is what it is: a cheaply shot found footage movie. If you don't like found footage movies, don't watch it. If you need big production values to feel like you got your money's worth, don't watch it. If you need protagonists that you can relate to, don't watch it (unless you're a bro). It's not super great writing, or acting, or particularly scary, but it has some jump scares, brief nudity, and the two bros--spoiler--don't make it. Good enuff to be mildly entertaining and, fwiw, I appreciate the effort to try to do something on a small scale.

I wanted to burn the script and the actors resumes.
Take a good horror movie in the found footage genre. Take two buddies and have them vacation in Barcelona. Have these two on-again/off-again "Best Friends" end up at some house where they are going to get some action. Have them get locked in and then have a she-witch or whatever she was, attack them while they try desperately to get out of the house. Then put your finger down your throat, barf out your Christmas dinner. But not because the movie is sick, but because the movie is nauseating. The dialogue is some of the worst crap I have ever listened to. The characters were just moronic and pathetic. Two best friends. One "Made" the other kiss a girl at a party and his girlfriend caught him and dumped him. He then whines about that loss throughout the movie and blames his buddy. More time goes on and Mr. Lovesick can't shake the blues and whines some more. Even when it's time to get some sweet loving action he whines, whines, whines. Then when the horror strikes he whines even more. Forget trying to get out of the house. Forget the killer she-witch try to carve them new ones. Forget the fact that they are covered in gasoline and the only light besides the camera light, are candles. That's funny actually. Because I wanted them both to burn. They should have burned the actors resumes and then the script. The friend who put the other one up to kissing the girl is one of the biggest wussy sounding losers I have ever heard. His voice is constantly at the level of a cry or a whine. He literally speaks like he's about to cry for nearly 30 minutes. I wanted to pour gasoline on myself and walk through a room full of candles. Before you watch this, purge yourself so you don't vomit from embarrassment.

Total waste of five bucks. Save your money and rent "Afflicted" instead.
Ugh. Total waste of $5.I can sum this up by saying it is a really bad version of the recent found footage video "Afflicted": Two guys set out for a European adventure - parties, drinks, babes... but end up "hooking up" with a she-monster that brings their vacation to a twisted, unexpected, bloody end. Yet, while thi works very well in Afflicted, it's just a plain ole train wreck in "Hooked Up."This thing starts out somewhat interesting, but just goes from bad to worse. The acting is lame and the dialogue often makes no sense in the context of the story. The two "bros" turn on each other, then they're buds, then turn... etc. The only scares in this, for me, were two scenes in which the bipolar she-killer stands at the end of a hallway... that's it. There's some blood, and a little nudity, but this is honestly just a badly-acted, poorly-directed mess.Save your money and rent "Afflicted" instead.

Annoying, especially Tonio.
Look,I'm gonna be honest here -- I am writing this review before even finishing the movie, because I am so flippping overly aggravated with these 2 "ugly Americans". Peter and "Tonio" as he calls himself, are so annoying, especially Tonio, that I am hoping something horrid is going to happen to him just so I don't have to listen to him prattle on about his so-called sexual prowess. Ugh, he's so stupid and creepy and believes every girl in Barcelona is into him. Argh. I just had to vent now. More after I watch the rest!!!Now I must comment on the fact that Peter seems to be brain dead or ? Why does he want to go see his exgirlfriend straight from another girl's mouth? And yes, he IS very whiny.I'm just glad the movie is over. Thank you movie gods!

First clue its bad "Hooked up" haha
People actually pay for this movie? haha I watched it for free and like, uh, what did I just see? It was so bad, so cheezy, stupid as hell. I'd be mad too if I paid any money to see this. wow. hahahaha. I am still laughing that some sucker threw good money down the drain. heheUh, don't pay or even watch for free. Its really a waste of time. so bad.
