Counterside Noise

Hostel flavoured tag-o-muffin servings

Anything and nothing and everything in between with tangents or topics on the subject of Hostel.

For other things to take your fancy, there are other tags.

 

Burning embers and questions at the Hostel

Shop talk

Latest stash come under and gone, a swag of beanies and preview passes for Hostel: Part II from writer/director Eli Roth. Thanks to Sony Pictures for the gear to giveaway. Catch it out there from July 7.

As usual, a customary scan over the registry what made visits into the shacky rackles of the roach-infested, blood stained inn...

Hostel: Part II swag of beanie babies

What is Quentin Tarantino's involvement with the film?

Executive Producer.

Writ large across the trailers and all that other material what pimps and promotes the slasher/gore/horror film. Nothing much more than paying attention.

Of the three from the first film, who survived?

Paxton. Or Jay Hernandez.

Either answer fine given it being the same person, only in the character/actor names as they usually are. To work this one out, a read up on the first film's cast list with a glance on the sequel listing matches up with only one name appearing. Of course, another method is to actually watch the first movie all the way to the end for the answer.

Not everyone needs to watch the first installment before jumping to watch a sequel. Helps, doesn't always hurt. Hardest question of the bunch.

Where do you stay when on vacation or a holiday?

Anything goes. Really, anything.

Bunker blasting, a shanty by the seaside, a relative's place, a dungeon (for those inclined), a hostel, a hotel, a motel, a ranch dressing inn. Whatever, all answers up to personal choice and selection. Not a traveller? That works too. After watching the first film, and smelling the toast from a backpackers, why chance it?

Questions pretty much of standard fare in terms of level of hunting required. Certainly not the kind of trivia markers what leave people sitting in dingy under-lit toilets watching films of prequelistic nature.

For those who won beanies, size up those skulls, the headgear looks tight.
