Stop, you're gonna make be blush.
Basically, it's about a Slovakian hostel where rich European business-men can pay to torture and kill people. Three tourists get caught up in it and get tortured and...killed. That's about all I know, I haven't read much about it because I didn't want to spoil it for myself.
Anyway, apparently at advanced screenings people were passing out and throwing up because of the gore in the film. The only reason the MPAA let it slide is because Tarantino had his name on it as a producer(he also helped Roth with the dialogue, but isn't credited as a writer). Must be nice to have that kinda power in Hollywood, huh?
EDIT:
Just took this off of yahoo movies...this is a much better description then I gave, lol.

Two adventurous American college buddies, Paxton and Josh, backpack through Europe eager to make quintessentially hazy travel memories with new friend Oli, an Icelander they've met along the way. Paxton and Josh are eventually lured by a fellow traveler to what's described as a nirvana for American backpackers--a particular hostel in an out-of-the-way Slovakian town stocked with Eastern European women as desperate as they are gorgeous. The two friends arrive and soon easily pair off with exotic beauties Natalya and Svetlana. In fact, too easily. Initially distracted by the good time they're having, the two Americans quickly find themselves trapped in an increasingly sinister situation that they will discover is as wide and as deep as the darkest, sickest recess of human nature itself--if they survive.
