Only part of Hostel 1 took place in Amsterdam. They took the train into the former USSR to get to the Hostel.

The former USSR and Russia are not the same. Entering a former Soviet Republic is not the same as entering Russia. This film did not take place in Russia.

To me its like the US. If it takes place in Wisconsin, or Texas, its still the United States. I cant keep track of all the god forsaken countries in that area. Just take every consonant in the alphabet and say it at once and you have the name of a country.

Wherever it is, I dont wanna go there.

They took the train to Slovakia. I'll always remember because I was afraid to visit there when I was backpacking in Europe only a few months after the film came out.
