The person who is having their deck revealed chooses. I believe the reason was that although the Revealer forces an action, your opponent is the one doing the placing.
The "each opponent must" applies to the reveal and to the place abilities. It is the opponent (the owner of the deck that the cards go under) that is placing cards beneath their deck, they get to choose.

I still disagree. The ability is split into two parts.When you draw this card, each opponent must reveal the top two cards of his draw pile.Place each revealed Lost Soul in owner's Land of Bondage. Place the rest beneath owner's draw pile.Unless the card is switching who it's talking to, it clearly tells the holder of the card to do the placing, NOT the person doing the revealing.
"When you draw this card, each opponent must reveal the top two cards of his draw pile. Place each revealed Lost Soul in owner's Land of Bondage. Place the rest beneath owner's draw pile."The first sentence instructs the opponent to do the revealing, so the owner of the deck is the person who reveals their top 2 cards. I think we all agree on that.The next two sentence could be read two different ways:1) As two independent place abilities, no longer controlled by the opponent, but by the owner of the Revealer Lost Soul.2) As instructions for the "opponent" who did the revealing, as to what they should do with the two revealed cards.I believe that the second option is the correct interpretation. The two place abilities are instructions tied to the reveal ability. For that reason I've always allowed my opponent to choose the order of the two cards from my "Revealer" (if neither were Lost Souls), and chosen the order myself when my deck was revealed. It seems right that such a powerful Lost Soul as the "Revealer" would have a small, potential drawback of allowing the opponent stack their own bottom of the deck to their possible benefit.For those that are unfamiliar with the reason a player is allowed to choose the order of the two cards, this is from the REG entry on Place abilities."If multiple cards are placed in the same location by the same place ability, the player placing them chooses what order to place them."
