Eli Roth's stamp on a film is a guarantee of fear in cinema. Something that the directors and screenwriters of the upcoming big scary release Haunt know for sure.
Scott Beck and Bryan Woods called on Roth as a key collaborator in a work that promises to terrify viewers on their return to theaters and they made the most of his talent to create scenes of explicit, bloody visual style.
"We grew up as fans of Eli's filmography and viewed his DVD commentary as a kind of film school," Woods said.
"As a filmmaker famous for dismemberment and bloody scenes, we were surprised to discover that Eli always focuses first and foremost on the characters. We loved that instinct because it matched our own: to create characters that viewers like, so that as the dead accumulate, they feel more emotionally involved," Beck added.
A compelling story
