Daniel Robert Epstein: Eli Roth - Hostel

I like Eli Roth. No one caould possibly love his movies as much as he does, but I'm appreciating what he does and where he's coming from.

I was really surprised by what Harry Knowles had to say on this film.

eli roth owns my soul.. i'm praying for walk outs during a screening..

To Eli, if you read this:

Crediting your IMDb bio to Scott Harbinson is fucking genius. I've had my own wretched experience with Mr. You Know Who, so I get it completely.

Nicely done. Cheers.

so great to read this!! i have been so looking forward to this movie.

and hooray for this genre of horror catching on despite the negative publicity surrounding violence in the media. yes we can tell the difference between realism and fantasy.

Great interview!

I know some folks hated CABIN FEVER, but I loved it. And I think Eli comes across as a genuine cool dude whose enthusiatic about movies (horror and comedy, especially)!

I plan on seeing HOSTEL tomorrow and I'm anxiously looking forward to it!

I am really looking forward to this picture. Please please please, don't be a let-down. All it has to be is 19% better than "Saw" and I think I'll be happy.

Newton South is in the motherfucking house.

really good interview. roth loves the genre and in my opinion it shows in his films. his movies might be silly or slightly dumb but i love them. they're a throwback to the 80's when you could have drugs, sex, nudity, tons of violence and gore in your horror flicks. he makes them how he wants and dosen't go the pg-13 route to appease the studio's to sell more tickets to the teenage market. good for him!!!

I haven't seen Hostel yet. There's a few things in the article that look like spoilers, hopefully it doesn't hurt the movie for me.
