Hostel 2
I watched maybe half of the first Hostel (the rest I squinted at as I occasionally peeked through my fingers), so I expected this one to be just as brutal, although it really wasn't as bad. I only covered my eyes a couple of times, none of which were for very long, either. The beginning was surprising and gross, as were a couple of parts throughout the rest of the movie, but overall it seemed to be more plot-driven than it was gory.
*** SPOILERS ***
Mike and I pegged the girl who would be the survivor a few minutes into her first scene. We also pegged the first victim, but that wasn't hard. By the time they finally got around to killing her, I was ready to cut her throat myself. The ending kind of surprised me: I didn't think they'd let her buy her way out of the warehouse, nor did I expect her to lop off that guy's cock and balls. I would have tried to talk them into making the bloodhound tattoo into a dachshund, though.
