Elevation - A Guide To Meditation - Part 2 DVD

Advantages: This is how it sould be done
Disadvantages: May be hard to get hold of now

...Plot Hostel Part 2 picks up where Hostel 1 left off with Paxton (Jay Fernandez) waking up. I assure you however that he doesn't become the protagonist of the sequel. Switch to Rome where three American girls have completed their art class after drawing a picture of a female naked model. Deciding to go to Prague they are again suprised to meet the same model whilst en route on a train. Becoming friends with the mysterious model they are soon convinced to change their plans and come with her to a hot springs spa in Slovakia. Once arriving in Slovakia they all suprisingly book in a hostel. The hostel is part of a business setup which involves selling these girls to some of the richest although sickest psychopaths who find enjoyment in torturing and killing people.
