Hostel 2 trailer

Plot

About a week after the events of Hostel, the film opens with Paxton (Jay Hernandez), who is suffering from nightmares, in seclusion with his girlfriend Stephanie (Jordan Ladd). The two get into an argument where Stephanie denounces Paxton' paranoia as insufferable and exaggerated. To her dismay, she awakes the next morning to see her boyfriend decapitated.

In Italy, art students Beth (Lauren German) and Whitney (Bijou Phillips) are convinced by Axelle (Vera Jordanova), a nude model they are sketching, to join her on a vacation to a luxurious spa. Beth decides to invite another student, Lorna (Heather Matarazzo), much to Whitney's dismay. The four travel to a small Slovakian village and check into the local hostel, where the desk clerk uploads their passport photos to an auction website, where American businessman Todd (Richard Burgi) bids on Whitney and Beth for himself and his passive best friend Stuart (Roger Bart).

Later that night, at the village's "Harvest Festival", Lorna discovers that Beth has inherited a vast fortune from her mother. Stuart approaches Beth and the two share a friendly, albeit awkward, conversation. An intoxicated Lorna leaves to go on a boat ride with Roman, who proceeds to kidnap Lorna with the help of two accomplices. A local walks up to Beth and asks her for a dance, she declines. He responds with "I could have helped you." Beth doesn't understand and shortly afterward the hostel's clerk approaches and tells her "He won't bother you anymore." Beth and Whitney leave the party, while Axelle volunteers to stay behind and wait for Lorna.

The next morning the three girls head to the local spa to relax. Basking in the relaxing atmosphere of the hot springs, where Beth ends up dozing off. Meanwhile, a naked and gagged Lorna is shackled by her ankles and hanging upside down in a large room, where a woman named Mrs. Bathory (Monika Malacova) enters, undresses, and lies beneath Lorna. She then kills Lorna by cutting her with a long scythe and bathing in her blood, then slicing her throat with a sickle. At the spa, Beth awakens to find herself alone and her belongings stolen. As she looks for her friends, she notices several men approaching and surrounding her. Fearing for her life, she flees. While making her escape, she is ambushed by the "Bubblegum Gang", a gang of violent street children. Before they are able to descend upon her, however, Axelle and Sasha appear and ward them away from her.



Axelle escorts a flustered but somewhat relieved Beth to their vehicle. With Axelle and Beth away, Sasha confronts the children. He is angered that they interfered with his "business operations." As punishment, and to warn against future transgressions, Sasha draws out his gun and kills one of the children before the rest flee.

At the factory, a sobbing Whitney is strapped to a chair in one of the cells while an old man applies makeup to her face. Whitney bites the man's nose and attempts to escape. However, since Paxton's escape, the security at the factory has increased significantly.

Beth is taken to Sasha's mansion. Here, Axelle offers to "clean up" Beth's face. Afterwards, she is left alone only when she notices the kidnappers entering the mansion below. She hides in a closet which leads into a room filled with heads, with Paxton's head at the center of the room. Beth is then taken to a room in the factory and is strapped to a chair. Stuart enters and looks around the room at the tools with horror. He then takes the sack off Beth's head and explains about Elite Hunting. He then unties her from the chair and almost decides to escape with her but has a change of heart. He then hits Beth in the head and knocks her out. Whitney is taken to Todd's cell and strapped to a chair, where he taunts and terrorizes her with a circular saw. Overwhelmed with excitement, Todd accidentally lets Whitney's hair get caught in the saw and rips off part of her scalp, causing him to realize the horrors of Elite Hunting. He tries to leave, claiming he no longer wants to kill her. The guard explains that he must kill her if he wants to leave; when he refuses, the guards set the dogs on him, killing him for violating his contract.

The guards then bandage Whitney and show her photograph to other clients in adjoining cells, offering her at a discount. A cannibal and a man electrocuting someone bid on her, before the deranged and sadistic Stuart, now torturing Beth and blaming her for Todd's death while having delusions about her being his unappreciative wife, accepts the offer and decapitates Whitney. As he returns to finish with Beth, she seduces him into releasing her from the chair, then fights him off as he lies on her and chains Stuart to the chair. Beth grills Stuart for the code to the cell, then tortures him when he refuses to tell her. Stuart tells Beth the code, but she still needs to be buzzed through the door, which inadvertently summons guards to the room. Beth manages to get a guard's gun and uses it to demand the guards to bring Sasha to the room. Beth offers to buy her freedom with part of her inheritance. When Sasha explains to her that she must kill somebody to leave, Beth cuts off Stuart's genitals and tosses them to one of the guard dogs; Beth then orders Stuart to be left to bleed to death as he screams in pain. Per the standard contract, Beth 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 the revenge-seeking Beth surprises and beheads her, allowing the gang to play soccer with her head ending the film.
