34 Minute Q&A with Hostel: Part II Director Eli Roth

Posted on Thursday, June 7th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta

Last week I went to a screening of Hostel: Part II (which I really enjoyed). Eli Roth was in attendance and did a question and answer session following the screening. It was the first time Hostel 2 was screened for the public, so Roth was relieved to see that the audience loved the film. We recorded the Q&A, and are posting it for your enjoyment. Be warned, Roth does talk about some of the film’s plot points and twists. So if you haven’t yet seen the film, you might want to shy away. Also note that their is a brief pause where our recorder stopped for 30 seconds. Luckily we didn’t miss much. Note: This is not an interview. We will return tomorrow with that.

Running Time: 34 minutes

Tarantino Plans Kung Fu Grindhouse Sequel

Posted on Thursday, March 29th, 2007 by Peter Sciretta

Just when we thought Quentin Tarantino was finally going to focus on his WWII epic Inglorious Bastards, we learn that he already has plans for a Grindhouse sequel.

According to Variety, “Rodriguez and Tarantino want to keep the Grindhouse series going. For his part, Tarantino wants to shoot an old-school Kung Fu movie in Mandarin with subtitles in some countries, and release a shorter, dubbed cut in others.”

But didn’t he kind of do this with Kill Bill? Not that I’m complaining, I’m an obvious Tarantino mark that would probably pay to see any movie he makes. But my current theory is that Tarantino is trying to challenge my interest in his career. Bring it out Quentin! Bring it on.
