Though no masterpiece, Eli Roth's second feature 'Hostel' was a breath of fresh air after so many tired remakes and PG-13 horror. It's a sort of cross between classic horror and modern horror and for the most part it's successful. It was also successful enough moneymaking wise that a 2 was inevitable, but there was one problem: There had already been a number of films in recent years where innocent people are tortured and killed. So with that in mind, could 'Hostel: Part II' be any better than routine? After seeing it, I'd say yes sir.
Pros: An awesome and scary opening dream sequence. Excellent performances all around. Like in the original, the filmmakers make great use of the locations and get some beautiful shots. Moves at a brisk pace. Again the bad guys are creepy and may give you many a sleepless night. Awesome production design and gorgeous architecture. Plenty of the red stuff and some gore. Nathan Barr, composer of the first film, does another good score here. Though not as memorable, this film's ending is still unforgettable.
Cons: Like the first film, this one takes a while to get to the point. As good as the movie is, the 'torture porn' sub-genre is getting old now.
Final thoughts: I'd read a lot of negative things about this sequel and now after seeing it I don't understand all the hate. Sure we've seen some of this before, but there's enough good here to make up for that.
My rating: 4/5
