Hostel 2 Update

Posted by: Michael

Eli Roth spoke to Now Playing Magazine and has shared some interesing tidbits on Hostel 2. Hostel being dubbed as one of the greatest horror movies ever made. Myself I have not seen it so I can not say. Here is a quote from Eli:

"The follow-up will go in all sorts of different, crazy places, but I always thought it would be really cool to do a sequel to a movie and basically pick it up with the next cut that you would have done if the movie didnâ€™t end," Roth continues. "I think that thereâ€™s no need to make it fun in the first 30 minutes anymore. I think weâ€™ll start off with the creepy, ominous tone right in the beginning. Iâ€™ve seen the movie so many times with audiences that I think I really got a good feel for what works and what people were responding to, and thereâ€™s plenty that I want to expand upon."

You can check out the rest of the article over at Now Playing Mag. There is no word as of yet if Quentin Tarantino will be involved as he was in the first film which tells the story of two adventurous American college buddies Paxton and Josh who backpack through Europe eager to make quintessentially hazy travel memories with new friend Oli, an Icelander theyâ€™ve met along the way. If you missed it when HOSTEL hit we posted a 27 minute video interview with Eli, Quentin and the whole cast. You can still watch the Hostel Video Interview

Paxton and Josh are eventually lured by a fellow traveler to whatâ€™s described as a nirvana for American backpackers â€“ a particular hostel in an out-of-the-way Slovakian town stocked with Eastern European women as desperate as they are gorgeous. The two friends arrive and soon easily pair off with exotic beauties Natalya and Svetlana. In fact, too easily...

Initially distracted by the good time theyâ€™re having, the two Americans quickly find themselves trapped in an increasingly sinister situation that they will discover is as wide and as deep as the darkest, sickest recess of human nature itself â€“ if they survive.
