While out promoting his faux trailer "Thanksgiving" (watch it here), which will appear in Dimension's Grindhouse this Friday, writer/director/producer Eli Roth talked to B-D about his upcoming horror film, Hostel: Part II (new trailer), which hits theaters June 8. Inside you'll find details on the cut scenes for DVD release and what his plans were in making the highly anticipated sequel from Lionsgate Films.


There have been hundreds of questions surrounding HOSTEL 2, but unlike the first film Eli isn’t keeping secret about what he’s going to be bringing to the plate, “For Hostel 2 there were a lot of different storylines that I wanted to continue. I was trying to think: ‘What would I want to see if I was watching a sequel?’ I wanted to see things from the killer’s point of view; I wanted to see girls getting lured there,” Eli tells us, “I really wanted to make the movie feel like that sequence (in the first one) when he’s in the locker room with the businessman going ‘How’d you do it, how did you kill?’ Like that scene and the scene with the girls in the pub, where he’s trying to ask them questions but he can’t get any answers, and he’s not sure if they’re answering him or if its lost in translation… that sort of uncertain, uncomfortable, really awkward creepy tone: that’s what I wanted the whole movie to feel like.”

Literally speaking Eli wanted the movie to pick up from the next cut, “with Jay on the train, if you just took out the end credits, what happens next?”

We also asked Roth about the DVD release of the film and whether or not we’ll get some extra goodies upon release, “Yeah I was actually editing some deleted scenes and other stuff for the DVD today. It’s really just stuff I cut for time. The goal was to make a better, scarier movie,” he tells us regarding what type of film it will be, “ I could easily make a more violent movie, you can show body parts being chopped up and there: It’s a more violent movie.” But that wasn’t his intention with Hostel 2, “I really wanted people to come out of the movie and say: ‘That was better than the first movie and it was scarier.’ And yeah it’s got the violence that you expect from Hostel - it’s gruesome, and it’s gnarly, but I just wanted to make a better, smarter, scarier, film.”

	Dr. Herbert West 9:43pm, April 3, 2007 PROFILE - MESSAGE - REPORT Hmmm...I was a little iffy about this movie. The first one was fun, but kinda low on plot so I thought the idea of a sequel was pretty dumb, but it sounds like it's going in a very interesting direction.
	I've Never Been To A RRRRRRRRADIO Station! 12:22am, April 4, 2007 PROFILE - MESSAGE - REPORT There's a friggin' plot? Hmmm. "Eli Roth" and "Plot" in the same sentence is sort of like the Horny Tree Frog Monkey that dwells in South Central Boise, Idaho; I'd have to see it to believe it. Come to think of it, I think I'll pass.

But you people who don't like Eli Roth want to spend your time finding out what he's doing next so you can bitch about it. Go cry somewhere else.
