I’ll apologise for that post title right now, I couldn’t help myself. This weekend it’s the New York Comicon, and while it’s nowhere near as big as the west-coast convention of the same title it’s still a big deal in the world of comics, and of course movies. I know a lot of horror fanboys like Eli Roth, but so far I haven’t liked any of his films, Cabin Fever was a mess and Hostel had bits that I really liked but on the whole was very ‘meh’. Also I think the guy has been riding under the ‘Tarantino presents…’ mantle for too long. I actually met someone the other day that thought Tarantino directed ‘Hostel’…

So AICN have got a great snap of Bijou Phillips, headless and naked on the new poster for ‘Hostel II’. If there’s one thing you can say about ‘Eli Roth’ it’s that he’s a marketing mans dream, his films are old school 80’s horror, tits, violence and gore… there’s no deeper meaning, there’s no subtext and there’s no irony. I’m not looking forward to the movie, but I can’t say I won’t be watching it.
