This sequel begins right where "Hostel" (2005) left off, filling us in on the whereabouts of lone survivor, Paxton. But before long, we see that gender roles are reversed and we are travelling with sensible Beth, hedonistic Whitney, and virginal Lorna. After tussling with a gaggle of shifty men on a train, they meet Axelle, a gorgeous woman who persuades them to follow her to a rejuvenating spa in Slovakia. As the trio checks into the same infamous hostel, we are shown the inner workings of the previously mysterious torture club. Once the girls are put up on the auction block, online bidding begins among the clubs members - who are revealed to be prominent international businesspeople. After Beth and Whitney are won by type-A American corporate jerk Todd, who believes that killing someone will give him power, and his reluctant associate, Stuart, the film shifts to the preparations for their inaugural slayings within the bloody walls of the warehouse.
