![]() ![]() This installment not quite as well thought out and I did find the twist at the end totally impossible to accept. The first film I found fairly believable, and could actually imagine such a place in some remote part of Europe - which is party what added to my enjoyment of it. Something that was quite interesting if you enjoyed the first film. However this movie does take the viewer a little further behind the scenes of the 'business', and follows two rich 'clients' through the process of purchasing a subject right through to the torture chamber sequences. ![]() American backpackers lured to a hostel in Slovakia where they are kidnapped and sold to the highest bidder to be tortured and killed. The narrative is fairly primitive, and in many aspects it is a replica of the first. Yet again! I would be hard pushed to argue this movie is anything but an excuse to once again try and push the boundaries of explicit violence and depravity, something that seems to be a bit of a trend these days. I consider myself a fairly strong-stomached moviegoer, but I'm not ashamed to say this movie had me squirming in my seat. For me, someone who thought the first installment of hostel was great, I had to check out the second.
