Eli Roth, who is critiqued for his violence in movies Hostel and Hostel 2 (which I don’t get), directed and is starring in a PSA for PETA to tell people to report any violence they see happening towards animals because that abuse might lead to future crimes against humans. What The Bear Jew is saying is absolutely true because research has proven that there is a link between animal abuse and serial killers, Ted Bundy, David Berkowitz aka the Son of Sam and Jeffrey Dahmer all abused or killed animals at some point in their lives. Maybe if someone took the time to report the heinous crimes that they did to animals they would not have become the murders they became? So if you see some sicko hurting a poor innocent dog or cat or mouse, report the crime ASAP. You never know who you might be stopping.
Now on a lighter side, whoever thought we would we see Eli with a bigger prosthetic snake than the one we saw him with between his legs when he was promoting Hostel 2???
DON’T WATCH THE CLIP IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN IB AND PLAN TO!

I think by now everyone knows that Hitler dies at the end of Quentin Tarantino’s WWII masterpiece Inglourious Basterds and I have been wondering what he would’ve thought of the way QT changed history up. I know I personally I loved that Eli Roth shot the sh!t out of him, but looks like The Fuhrer doesn’t exactly agree with me.
Seriously that is one of the funniest things I have seen in a while! The angrier he got, the harder I laughed!
UPDATE: So what does The Bear Jew think about this bloody Brilliant video? Here is what he told me, “I have never been more proud. I’ll take an angry Adolph over a shiny Oscar any day.” I personally would love to see Eli get a shiny Oscar, but seeing Hitler angry is not too drab!!!
Before Eli Roth was getting rave reviews for his acting role as The Bear Jew in Inglourious Basterds, he was given the title “Worst Extra Ever” in The Mirror Has Two Faces. Seriously, how much has his acting improved since he did that 1996 movie back when he was 23 years old. BTW he still looks the same, but his hair is styled better now!
Eli Roth aka The Bear Jew spent his Saturday getting wrapped up by a big snake and totally making out with it. Kind of sounds like how I spent my Saturday, but he did his for a good cause! The Inglourious Basterd is doing a video for PETA and the Boston native previewed the PSA for The New Yorker. When the writer/director turned actor was asked to do the PSA by PETA he wanted to use his friend’s Python, but he was told he they could not use live exotic animals. So he called the makeup artist, Greg Nicotero who worked with him on Cabin Fever and Hostel 2 and created that beautiful big d!ick that he modeled for a photoshoot and asked him he had a big snake (not the one that goes between your legs) that he could use. Lucky for him the body was available, but the head wasn’t so Greg made one just for him. Eli went in and got to intimately know the snake that he will have such a passionate kiss with that it would even make Eve jealous and detailed what we can expect from the PSA.
Nicotero wound the snake tightly around Roth’s body while Roth rehearsed his lines for the public-service announcement. “Everyone knows that violence in movies is fake, but violence against animals is real,†he said. “Research has shown that violent criminals start out by torturing animals. If you see violence against animals, report it.†Roth looked into the snake’s open throat. “Can we add a little tongue? After I make out with it, I’m going to want to say something like ‘I thought we said no tongue.’ â€
I can’t wait to see their tongues in action!
Not only did he give them that salacious story, now that is he in the #1 movie around the world he told them what is up next for him, “Acting is fun, but I like directing,†he said. “I’m ready to start chopping up body parts again.â€
BTW on a Inglourious Basterds note, Eli isn’t the only hot Basterd in Quentin Tarantino’s masterpiece and Best Week Ever listed the others and I have to say I so disagree with their list. Eli is 4? He should be #2 behind Daniel Bruhl, the only actor that ever made me think a Nazi could be doable and he didn’t even make the list. Is she blind? Because she has Samuel L Jackson on the list ahead of Brad Pitt and Michael Fassbende and the Pulp Fiction star is only the narrator. Also missing from the list was Omar Doom who knows how to work a white tux. What do you think of her list? Do you agree with me she needs glasses because that list is so off track?
Eli Roth is one of the Inglourious Basterds in the bloody brilliant movie that comes out tomorrow, August 21st! Eli plays Sgt Donny Donowitz aka The Bear Jew and his role will go down in the movie history books, but how that will happen you will have to find out later. Not only is Eli playing the guy who swats off Nazis’ heads with a baseball bat, but the Cabin Fever and Hostel director also directs the film within the film Nation’s Pride and he did a fantastic job with that extra responsibility. That propaganda movie will make you laugh and cringe at that same time in a way only Eli can make it work.
Although Eli has acted before in his own movies and Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, this is his first major acting role and you would never know it watching him on the big screen. He is just so believable and funny as The Bear Jew and he told us at The Weinstein Company’s roundtable for the WWII epic that this was the only role for him.
No, the only role for me was “The Bear Jew.†I was like this is it, to be a Jewish guy from Boston that beats Nazis to death with a baseball bat. I have been training for my whole life for that part. There as no other role. That’s what I said to him, “This is it.†I think there are some actors, who feel, no actors in this cast, but other actors he worked with that felt that they were now that I’ve been in a Tarantino movie I can do anything. But for us, this was endgame. This was it. Like the ultimate dream for all of us to be in a Tarantino movie. And we know there is no such thing as a small part in a Tarantino film. You can be Floyd in True Romance or Christopher Walken in Pulp Fiction. Every part is a chance to create a classic cinema moment and everybody is going for it. I felt so lucky. The first table read you look around the room with Christoph Waltz and August Diehl, and all these incredible European actors, Melanie Laurent, you felt G-d this movie is going to be amazing. It’s going to be something so special and so different. It was a thrill to be a part of it.
One thing that wasn’t always a thrill for him was a piece of costume he wore for the role in this period piece . Something BJ Novak said he didn’t have to endure and didn’t know what type of a relationship Eli had had with the costume lady to suffer through that. Well I don’t want to hold you back from scratching your itch any longer here is what it is…
Plus being in wool underwear will make you want to kill anything. I mean we were totally period thing. Even if it wasn’t seen, like the socks, the underwear, wool wife beaters, my G-d you can’t imagine what I smelled like, I smelled like a bear. It was disgusting, but the costume, and Quentin’s like, “yeah, you’re getting a cool leather jacket.
Something that wasn’t disgusting for him is that thing that will land him in movie history and it is a huge spoiler why such an honor will bestow him, so if you want to see what he told us about the change that QT rewrote for him in the middle of filming the movie then click here!
