Eli Roth hosting the TMZ “After Dark” tour might sound like a dream … but, it really happened Friday — on the same day his new movie opened in theaters.
The director and actor jumped on the bus to show fans around Los Angeles … and, gave them an inside scoop on “Dream Eater” — by far the scariest movie of the year — which Roth also happened to produce.
It’s a found footage flick — think “Paranormal Activity” and “The Blair Witch Project” — that touches on sleepwalking … which Roth says he can kinda relate to since he used to get horrible sleep paralysis and night terrors.
It sounds like Roth’s dealt with a lot of horror movies come to life BTW … ’cause he told our audience on the bus about the haunted apartment he lived in while making “Cabin Fever” during the early 2000s.
The bus passed the Chateau Marmont — which some say is haunted … though Roth joked it’s really only haunted by a bunch of out of work Hollywood types.
Eli seemed impressed at how rowdy our guests get … partying the night away at popular L.A. hotspots while knocking back a drink or two. If they need a bit to eat, Roth recommend In-N-Out … and, he’s got a great Russell Crowe story about the fast food chain ya gotta hear to believe.
