Why America may not be ready for Hostel:part 2.

Three nights ago I had the chance (pleasure is not really the right word) to attend the premiere of Hostel Part II, complete with a Q&A session with Eli Roth following the movie

It sounds like this movie did the same thing that Hard Candy did to me. That movie left me scarred. I'm pumped about Hostel Part 2, but I don't have very high expectations just because generally Eli Roth's scripts tend to suck, although I did enjoyed Hostel. As much as I hate to say it, it sounds like Eli Roth could be the next George A. Romero, using the horror genre as a way of putting out deep, often political, messages.

I think that George Romero's movies' messages are easy to understand, but the kind of feeling I get from Roth's movies is that he just kinda makes them up after he does what he wants just decides, well "yeah thats what I was going for," kinda thing.

Yeah, I didn't say this, but i'd probably skip hostel 2. After thinking about it a lot, I kinda wish I hadn't seen it. Haha

I didn't think his past movies ever really said anything important, but judging
by what you said about part 2 it sounded like he was going for something deeper. Guess I'll find out tomorrow. As a horror fan I can't miss it.
