We have some bad news for those excited to check out the latest horror movie from Eli Roth. It has been revealed that The Green Inferno has been postponed indefinitely. Originally scheduled to be released to theaters on September 5th by Open Road Films, a new report from Deadline reveals that the movie was pulled from its originally scheduled date due to an issue over who will cover the marketing expenses.
Worldview Entertainment, who financed the movie, originally agreed to pay for advertising. Worldview's CEO Christopher Woodrow recently left the company and this appears to be an unfortunate result of their restructuring. There is no word yet on how or when The Green Inferno will be released, but we'll keep Daily Dead readers posted on any updates. Until then, here's a look at the recent trailer release:
“How far would you go for a cause you believe in? In horror master Eli Roth’s terrifying new film, a group of college students take their humanitarian protest from New York to the Amazon jungle, only to get kidnapped by the native tribe they came to save: a tribe that still practices the ancient rite of cannibalism, and has a healthy appetite for intruders.”
