While the GRINDHOUSE may have failed horribly at the box office last Easter set against 3 family films (ranging around 1:30 hr a piece), some positive feedback was given to the various directors for their "faux trailers" in the double feature homage to 70's B-movie cinema. Enough so that Eli Roth has been planning a full length feature film called TRAILER TRASH based around these types of trailers. He announced the plans for this film in Comic Con 2007 but we haven't heard about it since that time. Not anymore. Roth has contacted Bloody Disgusting giving some details on the film and passing the release date along which is currently set for August 22, 2008.
Here's what he wrote to B-D.
"...that's the date (August 22, 2008)! TRAILER TRASH was inspired by the two days we filmed "Thanksgiving," which was the most fun I've ever had filming anything.
Trailer Trash is not a horror film, it's a comedy. It will be very R-rated and completely insane, and I'm producing it with Mike Fleiss (who I did both "Hostel" films with), and writing it with my friends Jeff Rendell (my "Thanksgiving" co-writer, who also played The Pilgrim), Noah Belson (my co-creator on "The Rotten Fruit,") and my brother Gabe, who's collaborated with me on everything I've ever done."
