![]() Nudity is less prevalent (but still present). ![]() By having a female cast, the male audience gets to watch the young ladies the majority of the time while also developing a plot and character motivations. ![]() Visually appealing, sure - but no substance. In the first film, to accomplish this the boys had to come across numerous loose women with no character development. Let's assume the audience (mostly male) wants to see beautiful women, which I think is a safe assumption. ("Battle Royale" also addressed this, though the characters in that film were in a more forced and less natural environment.) Focusing on a female cast rather than male one really helps, I think. ![]() (Some of them are still just ruthless killers, of course.) At one point, a potential murderer raises a philosophical point posed in the past by Hobbes, Rousseau and Locke: without laws, how is man naturally going to respond to others in a state of nature? To some degree, they attempt to answer this question. There is a depth and complexity to them that allows us to almost sympathize with their angle, no matter how reprehensible they may be. Torture clients aren't just faceless monsters in "Hostel 2", but real people with hopes, dreams and fears. Relying far less on torture and excessive nudity (although both are present here), we get an actual plot, likable characters and best of all a glimpse into the other side. Guess what? We have a sequel that eclipses the original in every way - this one is pretty amazing. So "Hostel 2" sat unreviewed for several month before I finally broke down and watched it. I loved "Cabin Fever", but grew weary of Eli Roth after his second feature. Will they meet the same fate, or perhaps they'll have more luck? And what ever became of the kids from the first film?
