![]() ![]() His best film Cabin Fever had it's strong points but it also suffered in various places. Roth has yet to make one feature that is remotely adequate. All that does is make it that much more boring and predictable. The first half is completely boring but worst of all it looks like a remake as opposed to a sequel because there are countless amounts of scenes that look extremely familiar. ![]() The film takes half of it's running time to complete the set up and get to the gore, and although there's slightly more gore than the first one it doesn't add up to much. I was hoping that Hostel: Part II would correct the flaws of the first one which to be honest could have been fairly straight forward. But recently he's gone cynical on us and has started wasting his time on making stupid Hostel movies that honestly had no reason to exist in the first place. A long time ago when Roth made his debut with Cabin Fever I thought he had some real directorial talent. Not only did this unnecessary sequel fail to live up to my low expectations but it turned out to be something a lot worse than I had planned for. Since I have a bit of a soft spot for Eli Roth despite a few of his dissapointing ventures in the past I had to give Hostel: Part II a chance at redeeeming him as a horror film maker.
