It was a masterpiece of movie making that was a hybrid of genres. I watched it reluctantly of a late sunday evening on cable. I was quickly immersed in the story the characters. THat move scared me but held my attention. I had to get through it. The second one was a little more silly and predictable. With the standard movie twist of blood relations and silly things of the like. Not a bad movie but can not compare to his opus of Hostel. I still think Eli Roth is a Great movie maker and have become a fan. I look forward to his next project. Hostel is a movie that changed horror for me.

First of all, the only reason why I liked Hostel and Hostel: Part Two, is how fucking hilarious Eli Roth is with his dark humour. The story was actually pretty weak, and a third one with a shit director and screenwriter would actually be torture porn. I really don't want this to become a franchise like Friday the 13th or Jason or Hellraiser or Halloween or Jack Frost or Saw, where there are 87 horrible sequels. Roth shouldn't have sold the rights to the franchise. This is a terrible idea.

Personally, I like films that don't feel the need to cater to genres, if that's what the story calls for. Is Alien a sci-fi film or a horror film? It's both. I was just trying to say that there's more to horror than boobs and blood (although, sometimes that's fun too).

But I do agree with you Pan's Labyrinth wasn't exactly horror it was more dark fantasy... @TheDaftPunk

If you're just not a horror fan, I can't help you, but if you're looking for something with more depth and artistry try some of these: 28 Days Later, The Descent, The Orphanage, The Signal, Pan's Labyrinth, Sunshine. Some of these cross into other genres, but they all have depth that popcorn horror doesn't have. DaftPunk, there’s plenty of great modern horror.

Guy's forcing their girlfriends to sit thru it. Getting all your bros together to go see it. It became an event and thats why it did so well. The atmosphere around was bigger then the movie itself. The second one....not so much. Eli needs to watch Cabin Fever and remember why he is allowed to make films, more Cabin Fever less Torture Porn. the first hostel was great because it was so off the wall insane.

Someone who worked with Roth either got their hands on the copy and sent it out, or must have pissed someone off. I feel bad that Hostel III is going to happen without Roth. What ever happened to Eli Roth's Trailer-Trash?

Heck, I'm not even that big a fan of classic Horror, I just find the whole genre unappealing.
