It had been previously reported that HOSTEL 2 would hit on January 5th, but Eli Roth has talked to the boys over at Bloody-Disgusting and said that people are going to have to keep it in their pants for a little while longer.
According to Roth:
The January 5th date was never a reality. We sat down and looked at the production schedule, and I explained that in order to make that date we’d have to work 7 days a week non-stop and add extra people working around the clock.
Lionsgate and Screen Gems love the new script and believe we really can make a better, scarier movie than the first one, and are working now to figure out what the right release date is.
Props to Eli for pushing to get the time to do it right. Especially since the protagonists this time are three as yet uncast chicas who in my mind will look like the examples above or below. Click here for the rest of the interview, including when you can expect to see HOSTEL 2 in theaters.
