Tarantino’s Hostel Touch
May 30th
Tarantino told Stuff Magazine what his contribution to Hostel was:
“I came up with the bolt cutters to cut off the girl’s toes. And it was my idea that they run over the girls. The audience cheers every time that happens.”
You can just tell he’s very proud.

Twitch Interviews Eli Roth
Jan 13th
Twitch has an interview with Eli Roth up.
D: Alright hey, no biggie. So the flick seems about half boobs and half blood?
ELI: It’s actually a third boobs, and a third blood and then a third really creepy disturbing mystery.
D: Yeah … wow. That’s like cool that you can get it down that exact and all. Do the actresses like vying for the boob time?
ELI: Uh, well we talk to all the actresses ahead of time so everybody knows exactly…
D: Like do they catfight for ya?! Dude you are so lucky. I remember one time in the seventh grade…
ELI: No, no. We work out all the sex scenes and nudity with everyone so they’ll feel comfortable. Do you do this much? I mean usually I don’t do interviews without…
There are also reports of a sequel to Hosel in the works.
Hostel #1 At Box Office
Jan 8th
Taking in approximately $7.6 million on Friday, Hostel has the top spot in the box office race for this weekend. Current projections are for a $20 million opening weekend – an awesome start for a film that only cost $4.5 million to make.
Congrats to Eli Roth (JoBlo interview) for the success, and to Tarantino for pimping the film to a bigger audience than it would have otherwise seen.
