As a kid, I was the neighbourhood baby-sitter - very responsible, always in charge.
Eli Roth
Image
I have control issues. For sure, no question.
Eli Roth

The one negative to horror is that it's always law of diminishing returns. When you go in the funhouse, the ride is never scary the second time. You will never have that pure experience as when you first watch it.
Eli Roth
Image
Even post-WWII, nobody talked about the Holocaust. It wasn't until the '50s that people started talking about it.
Eli Roth
Image
Creative writing and shooting are muscles that atrophy. But when you work them, you become a self-generator who can branch out.
Eli Roth
Image
Natural disasters are terrifying - that loss of control, this feeling that something is just going to randomly end your life for absolutely no reason is terrifying. But, what scares me is the human reaction to it and how people behave when the rules of civility and society are obliterated.

When I was filming the death scene [in Inglourious Basterds], and I'm killing somebody, I had to work myself up.
Eli Roth
Image
You have to write scenes and design scenes that are scary and horrific, but that are also watchable. I didn't want people to just feel like they got punched in the stomach.

Image
Everyone is so terrified of being labeled a racist.
Eli Roth
Image
I hear what people say, I read all the reviews, all the blogs, and I am always curious to hear it, because you can't always listen to the good press, you have to hear the bad press, too.
Eli Roth
Image
I want an iPhone 5, someone said something nasty on twitter, or my boyfriend isn't texting me back, like whatever the thing is that seems so major in your life, when a real disaster hits you suddenly strips it all away and you see what's really important and who you really are.
Eli Roth
Image
I want it to be able to hold up in 30 years' time. So, I'm really thinking about everything.
Eli Roth
Image
You know, the best thing you can say about a horror film is, 'Don't see it.'
Eli Roth
Image
I've realized that I can't multitask in the writing department I can only kind of do one thing at a time.
Eli Roth
Image
I think horror should never be safe, whether it's violent or non violent.
Eli Roth
Image
My parents love it! They're on set. They make cameos in the movie. My father is a psycho-analyst and a professor at Harvard and he told me how many of the other professors at Harvard have gone and seen it. They love 'Hostel' and they love the thought behind it.

It's very flattering to feel like you actually helped create a sub-genre.

What's important for me is staying healthy.

Anytime you make a movie, the goal is a wide theatrical release, with the right distributor.
