Hostel Part II: The Threadening

edited June 2007 in Social Entropy++
So I saw Hostel 2 earlier tonight.

It was pretty funny, black humor all up in the bitch.

Have any of you seen it/are any of you planning on seeing it?

    Probably not. I'm all for mind-numbing, all-encompassing violence but man these sort of movies are just piling on and I'd rather watch something a little more upbeat.

    The latter half of Cabin Fever was fucking hilarious.

    I loved Cabin Fever, but hated Hostel, but loved his faux Trailer in Grindhouse.

    I heard from a friend that hostel 1 was good.
    That being the same friend who told me Reststop would be good.
    The same guy who told me the movie where the Asian girl cuts off a guy’s foot with piano wire was good.
    I do not value his opinion on movies much anymore.

    Oh it has it's fair share of boobies, but the boobies are mostly (maybe only?) also interlaced with gorefest (see blood ritual)

    The Hostel movies would be better if they had alumni from Boy Meets World like Cabin Fever.

    But he makes such awful, awful movies

    I could not speak for over five minutes after the PANCAKES sequence in Cabin Fever

    I just couldn't accept that someone would not only have filmed that whole thing, but also think it was good enough to put in the final cut of a theatrical movie

    I love the karate demo that kid does set to Electric Six's "Gay Bar" on the DVD, kind sir. Deal with that shit.

    It was just super long and boring.
    My friend was all “the build up is what makes the gore scene so great”
    You are incorrect
    All the buildup was what made the gore scene so lame
    I waited this long for THAT?

    Oh wow ya can this become a Cabin Fever thread, because when that kid shouted PANCAKES and started his slow motion kung fu with flowing hair dynamics I nearly DIED.

    The end of Hostel II was pretty unexpected and pretty funny, if a bit disturbing.

    I still think the best ending ever is in Death Proof.

    Hostel was the absolute worst shit I have ever seen at the theaters. I'm so very glad I didn't pay for it.
    The first half was softcore porn, so it wasn't too bad.

    Is the first half of this porn? Can I watch it and leave?

    For those who have never seen a kid with the urge for PANCAKES:

    But yeah, Hostel 1 wasn't a very good movie. I'm pretty sure Hostel II is going to suck, although, on a rare chance it might be good if it follows the Movie Trilogy theory.

    GOOD MOVIE --> BADASS SEQUEL --> MEDIOCRE/CRAPPY THIRD FILM

    Any franchise can go with that, Back to the Future, Jurassic Park, anything.

    Of course, I think the first movie has to be "good" for this to work, and since Hostel sucked. Well, its all downhill from here.

    Well. Then I can do something more fun. Like watch Pirates again. Or drink battery acid.

    I liked Cabin Fever but could not make it through Hostel so this movie is probably not for me.

    I'm looking forward to Cell, though.

    People don't like Hostel.

    One of the qualifications for being a person is not liking Hostel.

    I'm not disagreeing that Hostel was a bad and unpleasent movie. It reeked of "here's gore for the sake of gore".

    Horror movies are morality plays. You can't just have "bad shit happens oh no" and it be a good film.
