Comapred are the Unrated Director's Cut and the Workprint

The sequel, almost mandatory due to the huge success of the first installment, starts where the first one ended. One shouldn't expect much innovation though. The story is more or less the same except this time there are three women on the rack instead of men. Furthermore, there are many ideas from other movies in Hostel: Part II - e.g. from Caligula, Hannibal or Fudoh.

Basically, the Workprint is the final cut. As a result, there are only a few minor differences. Besides general differences elaborated at the beginning of the comparison and rather insignificant alternate footage, the alternate scene of Axelle's beheaded body ist probably the most interesting difference.

General Differences

• There are several color filters and higher contrast in the Unrated Director's Cut.

• Most of the CGI is missing, regarding both the violent footage and several additional alterations. (I would like to point out the chair on the left on the second screenshot.)

• When Beth turns off the camera, she climbs up earlier in the Workprint. The climbing is also in the Unrated Director's Cut but a little later.

There is a small difference on Beth's auction site. In the Workprint, the Japanese guy is already the highest bidder while he has the opportunity to bid in the Unrated Director's Cut.
