I really enjoyed the 2010 remake of the 1978 classic (if you truly can enjoy something so sickening), so I was pleased (I guess) to hear that Steven R. Monroe was returning to do a sequel.
This time the action shifts to wannabe model Katie. After a dodgy photo op (think Coco Hernandez in Fame) she ends up being attacked and raped in her apartment by one of the pervy photographers but that is only the beginning of a vile series of events.
I was slightly disappointed that they decided to go the Hostel/Slave/Shuttle route with this as the genre’s moved on. The cast give good performances but the whole affair feels far more grubby/low rent than the first outing, so it has very little to set it apart from similar films in the genre.
OVERALL SUMMARY
If you rated the first film it’s worth a watch but it’s no match for the preceding films in the series.
