Eli Roth talks Hostel Part 2 DVD & More

Posted by: Michael

In a recent interview we conducted with Eli Roth about his work on GrindHouse he spillled the beans on what we can expect to see in the upcoming Hostel Part 2. We asked us to give us something cool and exclusive and here is what his response was.

Well there's a lot different storylines that I wanted to continue and think of. I was trying with Hostel 2 to divert for a moment; I was trying to think of what would I want to see if I were watching the sequel and if you took out the credits the first one â€“ boom, what happens next? There are other storylines that I wanted to introduce and I wanted to see tings from the killer's point of view and I wanted to see girls getting lured there and I wanted to make the movie feel like that sequence when he's in the locker room with the business man saying how did you do it and how did you kill.

That scene and the scene in the pub with the girls where he's trying to ask them questions but he can't really get answers but he's not sure if they're answering him or it's lost in translation, that kind of uncertain, uncomfortable sort of really awkward creepy tone. That's what I wanted the whole movie to feel like, but I literally wanted the movie to pick up the next cut of Jay Hernandez and the train if you just take out the credits of what happens next.

He then went into details telling us what we can expect to see on the Hostel Part 2 DVD.

For Hostel 2? Actually today I was just over to the editing room editing some deleted scenes and other stuff for the DVD when I got the call â€˜hey, we're doing the press junket. Can you come over?â€™ I'm like ok, cool. Yeah, there's always extra stuff for the DVD, but stuff for the DVD is stuff I cut for time. It really depends on how it goes with the ratings board. The goal is to make a better, scarier movie. I think you can easily make a more violent movie.

You can just show body parts being chopped up and there your movie is more violent but that wasn't my intention for Hostel 2. I really wanted people to come out of the movie and say that was better than the first movie and scarier. And yeah, it's got the violence you expect from Hostel and it's gruesome and gnarly, but I just wanted to make a better, smarter, scarier film.

Stay tuned, we will have much more for you on Hostel very soon! If you have not already you can checkout the Hostel Part 2 trailer. Be warned its graphic! Last January, writer/director Eli Roth terrified moviegoers with the blood-drenched HOSTEL, which catapulted to the top of the box office charts and became the first Number One film of 2006. One year later, Roth takes us back to where it all began, and deeper into the darkest recesses of the human mind.

In HOSTEL: PART II, three young Americans studying in Rome set off for a weekend trip when they run into a beautiful model from one of their art classes. Also on her way to an exotic destination, the gorgeous European invites the coeds to come along, assuring them they will be able to relax and rejuvenate.

Will the girls find the oasis they are looking for? Or are they poised to become victims for hire, pawns in the fantasies of the sick and privileged from around the world who secretly travel here to savor more grisly pursuits?

With Hostel, Eli Roth cemented the cutting-edge credentials he earned with his debut feature Cabin Fever (2002). In HOSTEL: PART II, Roth invites fans to take another frightening trip where suppressed urges â€“ once unleashed â€“ have chilling consequences.
