Are You Interested in Hostel: Part II?

June 4, 2007

I keep seeing ads for Eli Roth's latest horror film Hostel: Part II and it looks horrifying... but not necessarily in the fun Halloween kind of way. The story follows three college girls who are lured into a "hostel" where men pay to torture them. Maybe I'm just not really a torture/blood/guts kind of gal. What do you think?

i liked the idea for the first one, but i dont see why he had to drag out the torture. besides, ive always planned on traveling europe staying in hostels, and this might thwart my plans.

I love cheesy horror flicks--probably because I'm also a huge MSTK3 fan!

buzz...thanks for the update on the halloween remake! i'm in love with the old one so i hope the newer one doesn't turn out to be lame. btw... i heard that hostel was inspired by the writer hearing about some website [?] where you can go to thailand and pay some amount of money to shoot somebody in the head. crazy!

I never saw the first one and have no intention of EVER seeing it. Ucky!

I was too much of a scaredy cat to see the first one.

I thought it was a website. That him and Eli Roth viewed the site and it kept Eli R. up all night for days and he couldn't stop thinking about it. And when they went to view the site again, it was gone. Hmm, this could have been a whole publicity stunt!

QT did produce both films. To whomever asked this whole thing got started as an idea when QT read in a newspaper in the orient somewhere an AD about paying 10k to see someone get tortured and they got their idea. ALthough it says based on a true story they never verified the Ad. Regardless, I love scary, suspenseful movies, but torture for the sake of torture does not interest me so I passed then, and pass again now. It also starts exactly where the first one left off with Jay Rodriguez (I think that is the actor's name) getting on or being followed on a train, since I did not see the first one -- less interest in the sequel.

This kind of complete and utter crap insults the intelligent. I weep for the future. When did kidnapping and torture become entertainment? SICK, perverted and stupid. Sorry--but you have to be a moron to enjoy that sh*t.

mizmode — I've been vaguely following news about the new Halloween remake because I thought I had time before it came out (I figured it would be released around, you know, Halloween), but apparently it's out on Friday August 31! Yahoo has some info and photos. Rob Zombie's directing. It really looks like it'll be good!

the first one was interesting to say the least, I'll probably still watch the second

Katiefrog: I love a good ghost story. Ghost Ship, Stephen King's Rose Red, Thirteen Ghosts to name a few. Lisara: When is that movie coming out?

I thought the first one was terrible. Too gross and too "this could possibly happen in real life.." I might see this one if I get bored, but I could defintely not see it and be absolutely fine with it.
