It came as no surprise to anyone that Hostel 2 got announced. I mean, when a guy is able to make a little film for UNDER $5 million dollars, and in turn it makes OVER $80 million worldwide… then you’ve have to be brain dead to not know a sequel would be on it’s way. And presumably a couple of more after that right?
Well, Hostel creator and director Eli Roth has announced that Hostel 2 will be the end of the line for him with the franchise. So we won’t be seeing a Hostel 3 with him involved. However, there’s probably nothing stopping the studio from going ahead without Eli to make 2, 3 15 more Hostel films as long as they can get some cash out of it.
It will all depend on how Hostel 2 does at the Boxoffice. But you can bet your ass… if Hostel 2 makes money… there will indeed be a Hostel 3 with our without Eli Roth. If it’ll be good or not is another discussion entirely.
