Aside from directing horror films like Hostel and Cabin Fever, Eli Roth has also taken post in front of the camera in films like Grindhouse and Inglourious Basterds, not to mention producing hits like The Last Exorcism. Now the filmmaker is taking both of latter jobs on the earthquake thriller Aftershock from Chilean director Nicolás López.
