Hostel II

                                                                     

 

           As my father always says, "nozdrovja", to your health!

 

The film starts where the second left off, with Paxton roused on a train. He is subsequently questioned by authorities. Shortly afterwards, the detective reveals himself as an Elite Hunting client and eviscerates Paxton. Moments later, Paxton awakens from this nightmare, in bed alongside his girlfriend Stephanie, who after pleading with him to report his friends' deaths, discovers his decapitated body in the morning. Meanwhile in Slovakia, a mysterious package is delivered to Sasha.....

Days later in Italy, art students Beth, Whitney and Lorna are convinced by Axelle (a model) to join her on a spa vacation. The party agrees and travels to a small Slovakian village and checks into the local hostel before retiring to their rooms. During this time, the desk clerk uploads their passport photos to an online auction website, where Todd, an American businessman, bids on and wins Whitney, for himself, and Beth, for his best friend Stuart. Later that night at the village's "Harvest Festival," Lorna discovers that Beth previously inherited a small fortune from her mother following her death, and the girls socialize and drink with the locals, unaware of Todd and Stuart observing them from across the river. Stuart approaches Beth and the two share a friendly if awkward conversation before separating. Lorna, thoroughly pissed, leaves with Roman, a charismatic local, on a moonlit boat ride. As Roman and Lorna disembark on a secluded shore, Lorna is kidnapped by two of Roman's accomplices.

Beth and Whitney leave the party, while Axelle volunteers to wait for Lorna. The next morning the three girls, assuming Lorna is enjoying Roman's company, travel to the local spa. Meanwhile, a naked Lorna is shackled and hung upside-down by her ankles in a large room by Roman and his accomplices. When the men leave, a woman enters, disrobes, and lays beneath Lorna in a candlelit tub. She rips into Lorna's back with a scythe and bathes in her blood, before slitting her throat. Back at the hot springs, Beth awakens from a nap and discovers Axelle and Whitney are missing and that her belongings are stolen. As Beth searches the empty spa for her friends, she notices two men stalking her, and escapes into the forest, where she is ambushed by the "Bubblegum Gang" before being rescued by Axelle and Sasha. As Axelle cleans Beth up at Sasha's sprawling mansion, Beth realizes that Sasha and Axelle are responsible for Whitney's and Lorna's disappearances and tries to hide, uncovering a room filled with severed heads, including Paxton's, before being kidnapped.

Deep inside the bowels of the factory, a woman applies makeup to sobbing Whitney, who after an unsuccessful escape attempt is strapped to a chair in a barren cell and teased by Todd with a circular saw. Overwhelmed with excitement, Todd accidentally maims her face and in the ensuing panic and revulsion refuses to kill her. The security guards, dismayed at the violation of his contract, kill Todd with a pack of dogs. The guards bandage Whitney and show her photograph to other clients in adjoining cells, offering her at a discount. Stuart, now torturing Beth, accepts the offer and leaves to kill Whitney. When he returns, Beth tricks Stuart into releasing her and traps him in the chair. After inadvertently activating the alarm, which summons the Elite Hunting security guards, including Sasha, to the room, Beth bargains to buy her freedom with part of her mother's inheritance. When Sasha reminds her that she must kill somebody in order to leave, she castrates Stuart, tossing his genitals to the dogs and leaving him to bleed to death. Per the contract, she is given an Elite Hunting tattoo.

In the closing sequence, Axelle is lured from the village festival into the woods by the Bubblegum Gang, where she is decapitated by Beth....
