I was just reading a description of the movie Hostel on Netflix, and it says:
"Quentin Tarantino presents this grisly tale based in part on actual events, directed by Eli Roth"
What in the world "actual events" was this movie partly based on?

From the movie's Wikipedia article:
'The film was billed as "inspired by true events"; Eli Roth claimed to have read about poverty stricken individuals in Thailand who would sell "members of their family to organized crime, then American and European businessmen would pay $10,000 to walk in a room and shoot them in the head." '
Whether the accounts Roth claimed to have read were true, I don't know.

Although plausible, I *highly* doubt that those events were real.
Contrary to most sequels, Hostel II was *better* than the first one.

i think actual events because this kind of things happen in other low key countries. murder for profit, prositiuting(everywhere as we know), gambling, or hitmen.
i tell you what though this movie is making me super aware now..when you go to a new country for vacation, and some supermodel is reallyyyyyyyyyy into you.......i will be super cautious!

That's creepy and shocking to think about, those events actually happened.
