HOSTEL 1 & 2 (blu-ray) dbl. ftr. unrated and 12 similar items

Brand new factory sealed blu-ray double feature of the director's cuts. HOSTEL concerns itself with Paxton (Jay Hernandez) and Josh (Derek Richardson), two young Americans on a walking tour of Europe. As the film opens, they've hooked up with Icelander Oli (Eythor Gudjonsson) and are currently enjoying the decidely non-tourist attractions of Amsterdam. But when their manners make them somewhat "unwelcome" in the territory, they heed the advice of an instant friend known as Alex (Lubomir Vukovy): If they follow his directions to Bratsilav, Slovakia, they'll find all the carnal pleasures they can handle at a special youth hostel that doesn't appear in any of the guide books. As most would-be-viewers know by now, it's a trap: those who stay at this hostel become fair game for an exclusive club of wealthy international "hunters" who get to indulge their sickest impulses on their prey in a private torture chamber--for a price, with Americans fetching top dollar. HOSTEL 2: This time out, the people in highly anticipated peril are three young women: rich girl Beth (Lauren German), carnal firecracker Whitney (Bijou Phillips), and doomed geekette Lorna (Heather Matarazzo). On vacation in Rome, they're approached by a mysterious beauty named Axelle (Vera Jordanova), who advises them that the Eternal City is nothing compared to the wonders of Slovakia, where she knows, as do we, of a happening hostel. The three girls nitwittedly agree to accompany her there, and are soon headed east on a train that's also transporting a herd of subhuman thugs, with whom they naturally make an unwanted acquaintance. Arriving at the hostel, the three Americans are greeted by everybody's favorite Slovakian desk clerk (Milda Jedi Havlas). They hand over their passports and he hands them their keys. Then he scurries down to the basement, photocopies their passport pictures, and e-mails them out to homicidal maniacs worlwide, along with the announcement that bidding is now open. The winners of this lethal auction turn out to be two other Americans, a well-heeled stud named Todd (Richard Burgi) and his shlubby bud, Stuart (Roger Bart). After reporting in to their hotel, Todd and Stuart are escorted to the familiar HOSTEL murder factory and issued a pair of black leather butcher aprons and an assortment of drills, knives, chain saws, and what have you. They get right to work.
