Hostel is an American horror film series that consists of three films, including two theatrical films, and one straight-to-home release film. Created by Eli Roth, the plot centers around a Slovakian criminal organization that lures innocent foreigners into their hostels, where wealthy sadists bid upon them for torture and murder. Over the course of the films, the hierarchy of the cult group is revealed to operate internationally.
The original film starring Jay Hernandez was met with mixed critical reception,[1] although it was a success at the box office.[2] The second film was met with an even more divided critical response;[3] even though it earned less than its predecessor, it earned a profit for the studios.[4] The third film was released to more positive reviews from critics than the previous movies,[5] although its monetary statistics regarding sales on home media are not disclosed.[6]
