This movie was great. I own it on DVD and watch it regularly. I think this ran circles around the original.

I just watched Hostel II, It's been a while since it's release but I lost interest just by remembering how bad was the first one. Strangely, this one his basically the same story line but it's really good! It surprised me a lot, the reason is simple, this movie explains everything of the first one and you are aware of who is who and what could happen if ... you know what I mean. The relations between killer and victim is far more interesting than the boring ''I don't know what's happening'' you see the killer's reaction and there's some well thought twists at the end. Finally, the second one could not have been that good if the first one wouldn't have been a piece of S**T, it completes it perfectly and now please producers do NOT make a thrid one!

Great. 10,000,000 times beter than the original. Loved the cast and Eli oth showed he had te potential to make a great movie.

The plot is even less interesting than the first one. But in a way thats better, cos the first one was a glossy hollywood movie with stolen gore scenes from other movies unknown to the bigger audience. So for this fact I like the second better than the first part. But people that think Eli is in it for anything else but the money are those dumb mass that are stupid enough to fill his pockets with money, while the true artists from who he steals are left behind (like Miike Takashi). Thank god his next movie is PG13, he made his name with these so called "shocking" movies, he claimed some fame with stealing gore moments from movies like Mermaid in a manhole (the eye scene from hostel 1) and now he's up for the big big money with lame ass pg13 "horror"....

If there was some make-believe planet where movies that try to somehow piece a very lacking story together compiled with male and female genitalia and over used stage blood together, this would be the ruler of that planet. It was mildly entertaining to watch a german shepard eat a guys dong, yes, but let's face it a 2 minute scene was not worth sitting down for the other 93 minutes of crappy movie making. Now throw a few more dog eating dong scenes and we would have a better plot to go with. Save your brain power, electricity, and wear and tear on your dvd player and just watch that History Channel special you saw the commercial for instead. - MyOwnAutopsy

Great movie! Keep up the fantastic work Eli Roth! I am looking forward to Hostel 3!


Posted By: peepnklown at 12:38am, April 4, 2008

If you think gore, violence and nudity is all you need for a good horror movie then you are mistaken Eli (AGAIN!).


Posted By: jicle at 8:58pm, March 30, 2008

Posted By: Damned Of Hell at 8:36pm, February 20, 2008

Well, I paid five quid for this film and it was money down the drain...

For the most part it was boring, there wasn't near enough gore and the ending was predictable and stale.

Hostel - part III? Hell no!



Posted By: halloweenfan at 7:14pm, February 7, 2008

Hostel movies need to stop. It is getting old. If they make hostel three they are gonna have them kill little kids and after that little kitty cats and after that if the continue on making hostel movies they will resort to killing off Big soft teddy bears.

When Eli Roth’s pay-to-torture flick Hostel came out in 2005 I found it to be a perfectly paced, well acted, cliché defying thriller that provided a much needed breath of fresh air to the horror genre. Considering the film dominated at the box office, public opinion seemed to agree with my assessment. However, I was admittedly a bit worried when Hostel: Part Two flopped in theaters the second time around taking a substantially lower amount of revenue than its predecessor. After viewing the film I can rightfully say those worries have been quelled. What follows is a review for one of the most underrated films of 2007.

Hostel: Part Two is essentially a direct continuation of the first movie. You could splice the end of the first Hostel with the beginning of Part Two and the story would just keep running as though no break ever took place. Right from start the writing is top-notch returning us instantly to the world of fear and panic established from where the first Hostel left off. Roth takes us further into the torture profit organization than ever before showing us all the chess playing that went on behind closed doors last time. The familiar locations and people create a quaint tone, like a joke that’s between the antagonists and the audience but is kept from those being preyed upon. It’s as though we know what’s in store, and yet, just like before, all our best guesses couldn’t be more wrong.

Like before, the story follows a group of three young travelers seeking a good time. But unlike before the three adventurers are women instead of horny guys. This changes things up quite a bit. Whereas the opening act of the first film was filled with gratuitous amounts of nudity and profane language, this one is more, dare I say, “civilized”. The girls are talked into diverting their travel plans in favor of a new location, a hot springs site in Slovakia, which as we already know is just a front for the murder business. Though the setup is fairly similar to the first film the manner in which the girls are lured to their sinister fates is entirely different and far crueler if you ask me.

One of the most interesting aspects of Part Two is that it contains a plotline from the exact opposite side. We get to see the lives of two American businessmen who have purchased the rights to kill the aforementioned girls, and we get to watch as they become the newest members of the Elite Hunting organization. The rich man is eager to get in his room and start the bloodshed while the middle-class man is more timid and unsure of what he is doing. Eventually both stories merge into one and the buildup is phenomenally orchestrated.

Of course, this wouldn’t be a Hostel film, or even an Eli Roth film, without those nasty torture scenes, and trust me when I say that Part Two does not disappoint. Perhaps it’s because the victims are girls this time, or perhaps because Roth just decided to up the ante a huge degree, but the violence in this film (though sparse) is unreal. All the gruesome moments are filmed perfectly, mixing both in your face, cringe-worthy gore with that which is better left to the imagination. One scene was so particularly bloody that I sat in my seat squirming uncomfortably and I involuntarily bellowed out, “fucking sick man!”. Sick it may be but I loved every second of it because it was relentless rather than campy or exaggerated, and it did its job so well.

Visually and aurally Roth has a style all of his own. While I believe that this film is better seen than described I must commended the artistic prowess demonstrated during one scene where the two men change into their slaughter outfits and head down the elevator with nothing audible except a chilling piece of the score and the backdrop of a woman singing a haunting melody. Sheer brilliance.

The final act is every bit as good as the previous Hostel if not better. The story takes an unexpected twist (though I was able to predict it and was pleased to find out I was right) and should have most viewers shocked with their hearts racing. I’ll save you any spoilers but I must say the character dichotomy is the central winning element of the film and devotes to a certain unconventionalism that makes the Hostel films so original.

Overall there really weren’t enough things that I didn’t like to pay mention to. I feel Roth has truly outdone himself on all measures and it’s all the more disheartening to know that the movie was a cinematic bomb. I’m hoping against hope that it fares better on DVD because it’s urgent that distributors continue to release films like this instead of resorting to PG-13 borefests. Hostel: Part Two is a prime example of the proper evolution of horror films.
