When Paxton is in the slaughterhouse with the German, he delivers a speech in German. In essence, he is saying, "You don't want to kill me, you'll regret it all your life, you will hear my screams every night in your nightmares, please don't kill me."

Christ, you couldn't figure out that was the gist of what he was saying???? I don't speak a word of German, but this was patently obvious to me.

If the director wanted to keep it a secret, he shouldn't have had the kid wimpering and pleading, and the tormentor acting profoundly disturbed.

EDIT: BTW, I watched the first half of "Ichi the Killer" tonight. Got bored with it halfway through. But the violence in the first half was far more graphic than anything from "Hostel". Since "Hostel" had absolutely nothing to offer except graphic torture, and since you seemed to like it, you might want to check out "Ichi".
