After spending the past weeks in pre-production on the follow-up to his successful horror film HOSTEL, Eli Roth is set to begin shooting. Roth is no stranger to having beautiful women in his films. Cerina Vincent appeared in CABIN FEVER, and Barbara Nedeljakova and Jana Kaderabkova were the seductive window dressing in HOSTEL who, for money, turn the tables on the two young lads who choose them for sex, and use them for far worse purposes.
HOSTEL: PART II, according to Fangoria’s website, co-stars Lauren German (pictured) and Vera Jordanova (pictured). For more on HOSTEL: PART II, see http://www.fangoria.com:
Fango just got the scoop on the cast for the sequel that has apparently been given the ’80s-esque handle HOSTEL: PART II. Set to roll within the next week or so back in the Czech Republic (where the original lensed), the follow-up focuses this time on a trio of female travelers who run afoul of the underground torture network. Said girls will be played by TEXAS CHAINSAW remake hitchhiker Lauren German, Bijou (VENOM) Phillips and Heather (SCREAM 3) Matarazzo, with Jay Hernandez returning as Paxton (who may or may not make it to the end of his second adventure). Also in the HOSTEL: PART II cast are Finnish model-turned-actress Vera Jordanova (check out her MySpace page at http://www.myspace.com/verajspace), THE PRODUCERS’ Roger Bart (!) and Richard (STARSHIP TROOPERS 2) Burgi; Eli Roth writes and directs, of course. Look for lots of coverage of the new HOSTEL (initially announced as a January 2007 release, though that’s unlikely given that it’s just rolling now) on this site and in Fango’s pages. —Michael Gingold
