Hostel: Part II

Trivia: According to Eli Roth, the theatrical release of the film did not have proper color-correction, particularly with the blood. He was displeased by how the blood looked on-screen. However, home media releases on DVD/Blu-Ray featured proper color-correction that he approved of.

Trivia: When Stuart's severed "bits and pieces" are snatched up and eaten by one of the guard-dogs, special dog-food-based versions of the genitals had to be constructed by the makeup-effects team in order for the dog to be able to safely ingest them.

Trivia: Director Eli Roth wanted to use the same child actors for the "Bubblegum gang" that were in the first film. While he was able to use some of them (including the "lead" member), a number of the child actors had began to have growth-spurts in between films and no longer looked the same, and thus had to be recast.

Trivia: When Beth finds the room with the severed heads, watch the screen closely. The severed head to the left of Paxton's is actually director Eli Roth's head. Roth had the makeup-effects department build severed-head prop made of himself for this grisly cameo. (And contrary to popular belief, Roth confirmed that producer Quentin Tarantino's head is NOT in the scene.).

Trivia: The man who is seen eating the flesh of a male victim is a cameo appearance by Ruggero Deodato, director of the infamous "Cannibal Holocaust."

Trivia: The woman who bathes in the blood of one of the lead characters was inspired by the story of Countess Elizabeth Bathory, a female serial killer who lived from 1560-1614. She was accused or torturing and killing numerous victims, and her crimes lead to the creation of a false myth that she would bathe in the blood of her victims in order to maintain a youthful look.

Continuity mistake: After all the rich people bid on the girls, they cut to an American talking on the phone to someone. A school bus pulls up outside and his kids get up from the table with their school things and head for the bus. A few moments later the bus pulls away, yet you never see the kids get on the bus. The door to the bus is in plain sight at all times and when the bus pulls away you see no other door that they could have used.

Question: The original Hostel film had 3 different prices (can't remember them exactly but it was one price for local, slightly more expensive for Asian and very expensive for American). However this film sends pictures to clients' phones and starts an auction. Anyone know why this one is different when it's supposed to be the same operation?

Answer: Since the events of the first film, there were some changes in the operation....enhanced security, etc. It can be presumed that the auction is simply one of those changes.
