I think that films like Hostel tank at the box office, because there just isn't the audience for horror films anymore. Most people appear to go for the blockbusters, and it is a small minority like ourselves who will make the effort to see a film like this at the cinema. Else, if people don't hear good things about a film, then they will wait for it to go to dvd. Remembering too that going to the movies is quite expensive, compared to back in say the 80's. I think that the majority of money made for either the Saw films or the Hostel films will be from dvd hire or sales. Lets face it these aren't films that are going to appeal to everyone out there. If people want gore, they only have to watch CNN. Hostel 2 has an "R" rating here (18 years and over), so there are going to be alot of teenagers who are only going to be able to see this once the dvd is out.
