Hostel 1 & 2 German Steelbooks

[TopCow]

I just bought these from eBay. I think they are MediaMarket exclusives? Anyways, they aren't in the database, was wondering if anybody else heard of these? I couldn't find another thread about them, so sorry if my search skills suck.

I guess you mean these ones?

Haven't even been out long, surprised no one made a thread about them here.

Yup, those are it. I wonder why they haven't been added to the database yet. Of course, they are very plain steels. No em/debossing, no interior artwork. I'm a huge fan of the Hostels, though, so I'm glad to have them anyway.

I've seen them in other stores than Media Markt, so I guess they're not exclusives. Of course I might be wrong here as the "exclusive" sometimes extends to Germany only, whereas it can be sold in other stores in neighboring german-speaking countries (Austria and Switzerland).

Hostel is a bare bones disc, there is no extra contents at all. Here's a link to the ofdb.de entry:http://www.ofdb.de/view.php?page=fas...377&vid=373960

Hostel 2 is a bit more problematic. On Blu, only the R-rated cut has been released in Germany, further cut down by a few seconds in the throat-cutting scene around the 50 minute mark. Here's the entry on ofdb.de:http://www.ofdb.de/view.php?page=fas...328&vid=374883

Compared to the unrated version, here's what is cut:http://www.schnittberichte.com/schni...ht.php?ID=4588

Yeah, Hostel 2 censored in a SteelBook is not so cool unless you can replace the disc with the unrated version.
Interesting sidenote (as mentioned in Erasmus Craven's link), Germany is the only country in the world to get the Theatrical version of Hostel 2 on Blu-ray, even if its censored.

Well, I own the u.s. versions unrated, and have already swapped them out. I just want the steels. Shame they have no interior art.
