Cape Argus / The Star Debashine Thangevelo Check in for your worst nightmare. | 5 | |
Die Burger Mariana Malan Grens aan die so-genaamde snuf-rolprente. | 5 | |
Cape Times Gene Seymour For dedicated gore hounds. | 5 | |
Mail & Guardian Shaun de Waal | 10 | |
The Citizen Sabrina Dean It remains, though, a sordid affair directed entirely at fans of such gore extravaganzas as Saw. | 10 | |
Sunday Times Barry Ronge Part II is almost the same torture-porn, still disgusting but now just boring. | 0 | |
24.com Ivan Sadler As many other recent horror outings have been so dismal and thrill-free, I can recommend it to fans, but it's doubtful many other people will enjoy it. | 5 | |
BBC Jamie Russell Roth's tame sequel to his over-hyped sophomore effort is so safe, dollar-hungry and depressingly cynical it's unlikely to be the future of anything (except perhaps the inevitable Hostel: Part III). | 10 | |
Box Office Annlee Ellingson Although reactions toward it may be hostile, Hostel has something to say — and says it well | 13 | |
ReelViews James Berardinelli The problem with Hostel Part II is the same flaw that afflicted Hostel: no tension. The killing is formulaic and obligatory. There's little suspense about who's going to live. | 8 | |
ScreenIt The intended horror coaster known as Hostel: Part II is nothing but a flat ride. | 6 | |
