Eli Roth Says No To Violence

Eli Roth has become well-known, and heavily criticised in some quarters, for pushing the level of viscera and violence in his films to the very limit. But no more, apparently.

The Hostel director has stated that his next film will be PG-13 rated and, y'know, for kids. He says that he's almost complete on the script for a new "big-budget, PG-13, mass-destruction movie" inspired by the success of Cloverfield and Transformers.

"I feel like I pushed the violence in R movies about as far as I can push it. I feel like I'm bled out. I wanna switch it up," he stated, adding that then new film will be "total chaos and pandemonium".

No more details are available at present, but Roth says there will be an announcement next month.
