More quotes by Eli Roth
I like movies like 'Mother's Day', where you watch it, and you've liked it for years as a horror movie.
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
What's important for me is staying healthy.
Eli Roth
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
The world is changing. Social media is a way to sell movies and to build a fan base. The truth is that you have followers because they know you are into it and you're funny and you like it. I think it's great.
Eli Roth
I have control issues. For sure, no question.
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 don't want people to feel: Why am I watching this? It's sick and sadistic. I want people to watch and think it's scary but they can't wait to see what happens next. I also wanted to make a movie that was watchable.
Eli Roth

Eli Roth
I generally follow my own compass and make films about what's scaring me.
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
Even post-WWII, nobody talked about the Holocaust. It wasn't until the '50s that people started talking about it.
Eli Roth
I want a movie that 30 years from now, people can look back and see it as a reflection of where the culture was at - as a barometer of the culture.
Eli Roth
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.
Eli Roth
You can pretend everything's fine, but if there's an unhappiness or you're not having sex or you're not communicating or you're made to feel third best in the house and you don't address it and you just try to put on a nice face and a smile, that kind of aggression and anger is going to come out in some sinister way.
Eli Roth
Imagine trying to relive your worst break-up, your worst fight, the most painful death of a loved one, and just really relive it step by step, and bring it up and apply it to the scene you're in.
Eli Roth
I want it to be able to hold up in 30 years' time. So, I'm really thinking about everything.
Eli Roth
When I go see an R-rated horror movie, I want lots of violence.
Eli Roth
