More quotes by Eli Roth
It's just assumed that a horror sequel is going to be bad. It's never going to be as good as the first one.
Eli Roth
I have so many different projects, I hear voices in my head - the characters talking all at once - and I have to write to make them stop.
Eli Roth
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
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
Horror movies are the best date movies. There's no wondering , 'When do I put my arm around her?'
Eli Roth
It's very flattering to feel like you actually helped create a sub-genre.
Eli Roth
I like movies like 'Mother's Day', where you watch it, and you've liked it for years as a horror movie.

In musical theater, if you have a song, it has to advance the plot. If you have a song in a musical and it does not advance the plot, it gets dropped.

A comedy can actually get funnier and funnier. Even though you know the joke, you enjoy it so much, it's the facial expression, you laugh. The laugh doesn't wear off. It could be with you for thirty years.
Eli Roth
Look at comic books. It used to be something that only geeks were into. And now it's everywhere.
Eli Roth
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
As a kid, I was the neighbourhood baby-sitter - very responsible, always in charge.
Eli Roth
I've always been fascinated by the idea that there's no such thing as evil it's all in your point of view. To one group a suicide bomber is the antichrist and to one he's a hero.
Eli Roth
I need to eliminate 'like' from my vocabulary. I begin sentences with, 'That's seriously like ' I hear myself talking in this Los Angeles high-school student kind of way, and I hate it.
Eli Roth
All the copycat movies were always PG-13 and people said: Nobody wants violence.
Eli Roth
I was listening to music to kind of pump myself up and get psyched up, like I was listening to Iron Maiden and Misfits and Dead Kennedys, and it was like my '80s Massachusetts parking-lot heavy metal and Guns N' Roses.
Eli Roth
I'm not interested in going after a part. I think if someone wants me for a part and approaches me then I'll take it on a case-by-case basis and see what that part is.
Eli Roth
'Troll 2' is one of the rare sequels where you don't have to waste time watching the first one, since the films have absolutely nothing to do with one another.
Eli Roth
'Beatrice Cenci' was an amazing film. If it were released today it'd win Best Picture. It's so well done, it's so contemporary, and the filmmaking is so smart.
Eli Roth
Creative writing and shooting are muscles that atrophy. But when you work them, you become a self-generator who can branch out.
