Also, 'torture porn' wasn't a thing until Hostel came out. Hostel was more an attempt at delivering a straight up horror picture while emulating the graphic violence of Takeshi Miike films (which is why he has a cameo) and as it was a low budget film that made a s*** ton of cash everyone and their uncle began trying to emulate it to score a quick buck.
