This year, audiences awaiting the return of Eli Roth find
an embarrassment of riches. On the directorial end, there’s both werewolf-in-a-steel town Netflix
original series HEMLOCK GROVE and his Amazonian cannibal odyssey, THE GREEN
INFERNO. The sometimes actor scripted and stars in Nicolas Lopez’s Chilean
earthquake picture AFTERSHOCK and most relevantly, has lent a guiding hand to
emerging talent, producing Ti West’s upcoming THE SACRAMENT and the sequel to one
of the more undervalued of recent American genre films, THE LAST EXORCISM PART II (out March 1st). It’s this tale of Southern
gothic that has Fango speaking to Roth about his own investment in continuing Nell Sweetzer's story, how audiences approach found footage, that which he's never seen before in a possession film and what his producing legacy aims to be.
