Hostel 3 On The Way
After the disappointing box office returns for Eli Roth’s Hostel: Part II, people were only to happy to proclaim the “torture porn” genre dead. But not so fast… it looks like the backlash isn’t stopping Lionsgate from churning out Hostel III. There isn’t much to go on right now, but according to Bloody Disgusting, Eli Roth will not write or direct this sequel. There is also no word on whether it will be released theatrically or direct to DVD.
Although I wasn’t that pleased with Hostel: Part II, I think Eli Roth did offer something more than a rehash of the first. However, without his involvement, I doubt that I will give part 3 a chance. Did you like Hostel: Part II? Are you interested in seeing a third Hostel film?

Oh joy.
Posted by Cinexcellence on June 23rd, 2008It’s always the exact same thing in these type of movies. I wouldn’t be suprised if this thing goes straight to dvd, so it can reach the few people that still wanna watch this stuff.
Posted by Matt on June 23rd, 2008I can’t imagine that it will go any other way but direct to DVD.
Posted by Stephen on June 23rd, 2008I didn’t even like the original Hostel. The only decent things that came from Roth were Cabin Fever and that Thanksgiving trailer from Grindhouse. I will take a shit in the case of Hostel: Part III in the back a Wal-mart, close it together, and put it back on the rack so whoever purchases this gets what they deserve.
Posted by Ryan on June 23rd, 2008Hostel 2 was way better than part one IMO. Not rehashing the same story and giving us a new perspective on the business of murder.
I’d like to see a story where somebody who has survived the ordeal would take on the company head on.
Posted by Swarez on June 23rd, 2008They should just take the script for Hostel 3 and make it Saw 7 (much like they did with the Lethal Weapon script which eventually became Die Hard With A Vengeance) so that we only have to deal with one horrible modern horror series rather than two.
Posted by Rian on June 23rd, 2008I never liked hostel to begin with but when you take roth out of the picture my interest drops to absolutely zero.
Posted by Drew on June 23rd, 2008Hold up Rian, are you saying that Lethal Weapon and Die Hard sucks to you? Just kidding.
I liked Hostel 1 and Hostel 2 was alright. His films play much better with his commentaries with Tarantino. The amount of movie knowledge those guys can spew out in 90 minutes is pretty impressive.
Posted by Primal on June 23rd, 2008I’m a fan of both HOSTEL and HOSTEL II, swarez is right, the second one is likely better than the first. But then again, I treat all of Roths films like ‘pitch-black comedies’ not horror flicks. Comedies with homages to better films, but that doesn’t make the Hostel flicks and Cabin Fever bad. They are a lot of ‘fun’ in a strange way. I’ve never understood the out-and-out hatred leveled at these films by fans of the genre.
Posted by Kurt on June 24th, 2008i so want them to make a hostel part 3. I hope that they make it.
Posted by Theron on July 31st, 2008Hostel two is good but one disgusting part i like is the guy getting eatin alive listing to habanera
Posted by Theron on July 31st, 2008I really loved hostel 1 and 2 and i think they should make 3 also..
Posted by prem sunwar on October 19th, 2008i think eli roth should go and help them direct and produce hostel 3. the sequel was much better than the original.and i know that if eli roth make a part 3 it will be better than the 2 one.
Posted by martin on February 14th, 2009we need beth 2 come back it will suck if they dont start it from the ending of part 2.
Posted by martin on February 14th, 20091 and 2 were top would love to see a 3rd!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by Gav on June 30th, 2009I hope that there will be a third Hostel, I’m a great fan of especially number two and I cheered on Beth as she talked her way out of the chair. That’s the woman I hope I am!! And gettin even in the end was such a
Well, I quite liked her way with the scissors!
Posted by Rikke on July 3rd, 2009i like Hostel 2 in parts becasue i am Bulgarian and when they spoke slovakian i understud it. Also many of the actors are not American. No offence i like american actors but to see some Bulgarian and Slovakian actors it was cool. I wode like to see hostel 3 with more gore in it. The 2 one was cool at the end but i wish this happens to no one. This is inded a scary movie.
