I think in the late '80s and early '90s horror was dead.

Horror audiences don't need to see some TV actor they're familiar with.
Eli Roth
Image
When I was filming the death scene [in Inglourious Basterds], and I'm killing somebody, I had to work myself up.
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.

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
Image
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.

All the copycat movies were always PG-13 and people said: Nobody wants violence.
