Eli Roth Want Quotations

People want to be disturbed when they go see a horror movie.

I want to have an ending where people say: "That's the most shocking ending I've ever seen in a mainstream horror film."

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

I love historical movies. I want to make a violent medieval epic.

Quentin [Tarantino] called me and said: "Yeah, you've got to be in my movie. You've got to be in Death Proof." But he made me audition. I was like: "Dude, I don't even want to do this..." So I left the casting of Hostel: Part II to drive to Venice, where Quentin was holding his casting, and the person ahead of me was Derek Richardson from Hostel 1 and he was like: "Dude, what are you doing here?" I said: "Don't ask!"

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.

I want people to see my name on a movie, pay money and know they're going to be entertained for 90 minutes.

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

If you don’t want to be scared in a horror film, don’t close your eyes. Close your ears.

'Hostel' is that's how I feel about what's going on in Iraq. There's people that just want money and people are being sacrificed for it.
