The pair will give a keynote speech, present Fantastic Fest’s Latin American market’s first La De Dios award and talk about their Chilewood partnership.
Roth and Lopez have made The Green Inferno (pictured), Aftershock, Knock Knock and latest production The Stranger written and directed by Guillermo Amoedo.
Fantastic Fest will host the world premiere of The Stranger on September 19 and runs from September 18-20 in Austin, Texas.
“I’ve had an amazing experience, both creatively and financially in Chile partnering with Nicolas Lopez and Miguel Asensio,” said Roth.
“Their whole approach to filmmaking is completely different from anywhere in the world, and I’ve found it to be far more creative as well as cost-effective.
“As the business changes and contracts and costs are cut filmmakers need to find ways to make their films without sacrificing quality or scope. We’re making theatrical genre films for a global audience, building Santiago...

Aftershock was released to Blu-ray and DVD this week, and we were given the opportunity to submit questions to director Nicolás López. In our latest Q&A feature, Nicolás López talks about working with Eli Roth, practical effects, and his thoughts on The Green Inferno:
Now that Aftershock has seen a theatrical and VOD release in the Us, are you happy with how the movie has been received by horror fans?
Nicolás López: It’s very exciting to know that people from all around the world are watching the movie on VOD, DVD or…pirated, and being able to have a direct dialogue with the fans (and haters) on twitter and instagram (@nicolaslopez) is awesome. I love every reaction. Love or hate. I just want the people to watch the movie.
Instead of a typical disaster, Aftershock is infused with horror elements. Was this something you always planned...

What happens to a group of travelers who are in an underground nightclub in Chile when a massive earthquake hits? Hint: Nothing good!
Well, except that it gave me the opportunity to sit down with Eli Roth to talk about his new movie Aftershock, in which he stars, co-wrote, and produced. I would say that’s a pretty darn good outcome! Check it out below.
In the middle of a night of wild partying, a hapless American tourist (Roth) and his friends are suddenly plunged into a living hell when a powerful earthquake rips through the coastal town of Valparaíso, Chile.
What do you think it is about travel that sets a good tone for a film?
Eli Roth: Well, travel – Everyone has fantasies of traveling. We all want to escape our lives and go somewhere fun. A lot of times we want to go as far away from...

After an earth quake erupts off the coastal town of Valparaiso, Chile, a group of travelers in an underground night club must reach the surface and discover it’s just the beginning of their nightmare. Gringo (Eli Roth) and his Chilean buddies Ariel (Ariel Lev) and Pollo (Nicolas Martinez) must help Kylie (Lorenza Izzo) and Monica (Andrea Osvart) escape looters, convicts, and the aftershocks that followed. Directed by Nicolas Lopez, ‘Aftershock’ is inspired by true events and real life stories over the Chilean earthquake that hit the country in 2010.
How does it feel to be living your dream, from directing to writing to acting?
Eli Roth: I feel like I’m getting to live my dream and there’s really no better feeling in the world. I think one of the keys to that is that I’ve taken chances and I’ve never played it safe on anything that I’ve ever done.

Thanks to IGN, we now have a restricted trailer for "Aftershock," an earthquake thriller that Eli Roth produced, co-wrote and stars in. It's directed by Nicola Lopez, who is making his English-language debut. His last two films, "Que Pena Tu Vida" and "Que Pena Tu Boda," were the highest-grossing Chilean movies of 2010 and 2011. Check out the trailer below. The story takes place after a massive earthquake that frees prisoners from an insane asylum. It's inspired by Lopez's experience when an earthquake devastated Chile in 2010. "We are making a smart elevated disaster genre movie with superb production value, something really big. The film's going to be very scary, very intense, and very real," said Roth. Lopez added: "It's nothing that you could expect. I want this to be my 'Robocop.'" "Aftershock" is set to hit theaters on May 10th, in limited release. Trailer:...

It is, it appears, an exciting time to be Eli Roth. A player on the Hollywood scene for over a decade, thanks to the runaway success of Cabin Fever, Roth was propelled to notoriety by the Hostel movies, and earned himself both commercial triumph and critical censure thanks to his seeming status as banner-waver for the so-called torture-porn subgenre that boomed in the Noughties.
Going into a new decade, the torture-porn phenomenon still seems to be going strong, as various film-makers continue to try and shock jaded audiences with ever more creatively-extreme shenanigans. Roth, however, seems set on diversifying his gruesome portfolio, with a spooky exorcism thriller sequel, a cannibal exploitation movie, and a horror TV show; he’s even got an evil clown movie on the horizon. Having attached his name to the well-received The Last Exorcism, it looks like Roth is set upon emphasising that he doesn’t...

Did you know that Donny “The Bear Jew” Donowitz actor Eli Roth was also a Hollywood director, producer and writer? Roth’s highest profile role was the one I just mentioned for Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds. He has a new project in the works and it just might call for some collaboration with young Miss Selena Gomez. She did say she wanted to focus on her acting as opposed to her music this year, after all.
The project is an “earthquake thriller”, said Deadline, with the working title, Aftershock. It was written by Roth with a little help from Nicolas Lopez and Guillermo Amoedo. It’s slated to become the English-language directorial debut for Nicolas Lopez, director of Que Pena Tu Vida and Que Pena Tu Boda, the highest-grossing films to come out of Chile in both 2010 and 2011.
Here’s to hoping that success translates into English with Aftershock.

Chilean director Nicolas Lopez has an eventful 2010. His romantic comedy Fuck My Life (Que Pena Tu Vida) become the top grossing film of the year in Chile, playing to great success on the international festival circuit and landing a remake deal with Lionsgate.

And so the dating comedy developed further into a wedding comedy and Lopez launched into production on Fuck My Wedding (Que Pena Tu Boda). Javier (Ariel Levy) plans a hurried marriage with Angela (Andrea Velasco),...
