The First Red Band Clip From Eli Roth’s The Green Inferno Is Here !

The first Red Band clip from Eli Roth’s The Green Inferno is here and it is bloody and extremely intense. I will not deny it, by the end of the clip my jaw had dropped and a few profanities were said. The clip is already limited on YouTube to 18 and over and FaceBook has already taken down posts that play the actual video, only links are being allowed. The fact is, the clip is mild compared to the rest of the movie, so I hear. Fans have been waiting a long time for The Green Inferno and I know they won’t be disappointed. The Green Inferno will be in theaters on September 25th. If you are under 18 or can’t handle intense brutality, blood or gore please close this article now. That being said, enjoy the clip.

The Green Inferno Causes Fainting In The Audience At The Deauvill Film Festival

Last night during the screening of ‘The Green Inferno‘ at the Deauville Film Festival in France, Eli Roth received the kind of response most horror film directors only dream of, an intense physical reaction from the crowd. Reactions were so strong, some people were fainting. Judging by the message Roth tweeted he seemed to be feeling a lot of pride. You can’t buy that kind of advertising. Roth has a talent for getting a reaction out of film goers and for someone to be able to do that these days, is truly impressive. Take a look at this audience reaction video below from a screening of ‘The Green Inferno’. The movie follows a group of student activists who are traveling from New York to the Amazon to protect a small tribe from destruction by land developers. When their plane crashes in the jungle they are taken hostage by the very tribe they are trying to protect. The tribe are not

The site not only airs short films in the horror genre, it also contains original content, such as “Real Scares” that features people recounting their true scary experiences . Crypt TV’s originals also includes a series titled ‘Permanent’, where people share the stories behind their tattoos, it also has ‘R.I.P’ where people narrate how they would kill their ex while the scenes play out in claymation, stop animation and other mediums, let’s be honest, we’ve all thought about that at some point.
