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
Image
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.

Image
I think in the late '80s and early '90s horror was dead.
Eli Roth
Image
I like movies like 'Mother's Day', where you watch it, and you've liked it for years as a horror movie.
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.

Much of my youth was spent in the parking lot or inside a Dunkin' Donuts.

When I go see an R-rated horror movie, I want lots of violence.

I think horror should never be safe, whether it's violent or non violent.

Possession and exorcism is something that’s in every religion and every culture. It’s a real primal fear: Is the body a vessel for our spirits? What happens if something else takes over it? Where does the spirit go?

Movie stars need to retain some of that mystique if you are a big movie star.

I think that horror films have a very direct relationship to the time in which they're made. The films that really strike a film with the public are very often reflecting something that everyone, consciously or unconsciously feeling - atomic age, post 9-11, post Iraq war it's hard to predict what people are going to be afraid of.

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.

Chile could work as a double for L.A. it's very production-friendly and there's terrific talent down there.

The film, 'Aftershock,' for me is really about how the minor problems in life that we think are so major ultimately mean nothing when a tragedy happens, when a real problem happens.

Pulp Fiction won the Palme d'Or and people said: Wait a minute, he's actually smart and he knows what he's doing! I feel that with Hostel, any time you make a film like that it's going to illicit a strong reaction and you can't worry about that.

Borat shows American stereotypes of Eastern Europe but it's an accurate depiction of what a certain type of American is. They think they can buy and sell these girls and then they get bought and sold.

Even the European critics... They said Hostel is the smartest film they'd seen on capitalism and how it's gone too far.
