Eli Roth directing Cell

[PrinceOfDarkness]

Hmm, I think this may be a good Idea. I loved the book and I heard what he was doing with the movie. I'll give Eli one more chance.

[The Mothman]

oh no way? i was hoping they'd make a movie of this book!!

Eli Roth will probably fuck it up though.

I haven't read the book but it sounds cool.I'll have to pick it up before the movie comes out.Its going to ge tough for Eli Roth though, Kings books are often mangled when turned into movies.

What's the book about?




Stephen King's book gets adapted for the big screen in this modern day retelling of zombies. For aspiring artist Clayton Riddell, catching a big break has never been his strong suit, and only put undue stress on himself and family. Sick of teaching art instead of making it, he's finally seeing his dreams come true. As he finalizes a big deal in the city of Boston, Clayton prepares for a new life ahead, completely free of financial burden and marital woes and the opportunity to start anew as a man established. But that's all about to change on one October afternoon, when at one single moment, everyone answers their cell phone, inevitably changing the face of humanity forever. The Pulse as it will be known is reverberating through every cell phone and causing a chain reaction of events, as users suddenly become relentless killing machines, capable of death and destruction to any soul that stands in their way. Now all Clayton can do, is band together with other survivors and prepare for a new world ahead where society is no more, and replaced by homicidal creatures, who are only beginning to transform into something far worse. But for Clayton Riddell, the worst is yet to come as he makes the trek across a different New England and into his Maine home, to a wife and son he hasn't been able to reach after the cataclysmic events that followed.

this sounds a lot like asian horror to me :D

I thought you were gay or dead or something?

Yeah, but thank God it's not!



I'm not very fond of Eli, but King's work may be something that could fit him well. I'd be more than willing to give this a chance.

Loved the book. Not sure about Eli directing this though. There is no gratiutous sex in the book, so I hope to god Eli doesn't through a bunch of softcore porn crap in this film.

But maybe it will be ok. The storyline is pretty cool. Not like the lame ass plots of Cabin Fever and Hostel. Surely, this film will top those two.

Amen.

As long as he doesn't throw in his usual cliches.
