A key highlight this June on the streaming service ARROW includes ELI ROTH SELECTS, where the Cabin Fever and Hostel director, and Arrow fan, chooses his favourite films from the label! 

Watch Eli Roth’s introduction to his ARROW Selects here

Eli Roth’s film selection includes:

Audition: “Miike’s masterpiece on the pursuit of perfection. A huge influence on Hostel.”

Basket Case: “It still manages to shock all these years later. A work of art that showcases the forgotten era of sleazy times square. You think you can handle the movie and then the last ten minutes happen…”

Contamination: “I love Luigi Cozzi. He does fantastic low-budget films and they’re always entertaining. Argento’s former assistant director, when he’s on, he’s on.”

Creepshow 2: “It’s all about ‘The Raft’. Huge influence on Cabin Fever.”

Donnie Darko (Theatrical): “Don’t tell Rich Kelly I prefer the Theatrical Cut. Please. Not that I don’t love his cut, but I fell in love with the movie I saw in the theatres.”

Madhouse: “You can’t beat Ovidio Assonidis for all-out bonkers in movies. And what’s that score I hear in the middle of it? Sounds a lot like Ortolani’s Cannibal Holocaust music, doesn’t it…?”

Society: “One of the best horror movies of all time for use of makeup effects is also one of the most overlooked. A mix of Akira, Reanimator, and an 80s California high school movie.”

The Suspicious Death of a Minor: “Very cool Sergio Martino movie with an incredible car chase through Rome. I still have no idea how they did that bicycle.”

The Addiction: “One of my favourite Lily Taylor performances ever. Vampirism as a metaphor for drug addiction. Walken of course steals the show but this is one of Ferrara’s best from his incredible 90s New York City run.”

The Mutilator: “I love this movie so much I had to rip myself in half in Cabin Fever to homage it. I love that they don’t even hide who the killer is. He’s just a mutilator. Check out the great doc Arrow had about the making of.”
