Opening This September on Las Vegas Strip, Eli Roth’s “Goretorium” Promo Trailer Takes A LOT Off The Top!!
Horror’s on our brain as Bloody Disgusting has landed the exclusive first look at the promo trailer for Eli Roth’s “Goretorium”, an exciting and gruesome, year-round experience that will begin taking a bit off the top of Sin City beginning September 27.
The astounding gore effects work was created by Dean Jones (X-Men: First Class, The Hive) and his team at American Makeup and FX. Each barber shop client went through 4 hours of makeup FX before being brutalized on set. They definitely took too much off the top…
In addition, the event’s official website has just now launched with ticket’s now available for purchase, with more to be had at the Facebook page. In the end, it doesn’t matter anyways because… “YOU’RE F&*KED!”
The multi-level maze of frights submerges visitors into the tale of Sin City’s most deadly mythical hotel and casino, The Delmont. The self-guided horror experience begins in the lobby of the Delmont and unveils gruesome and ghastly sights of past hotel guest victims and the serial-killing family behind the deeds at every turn. Employing high-tech Vegas showmanship with old-fashioned scares, the terrifying labyrinth of live actors, animatronic frights and stunning special effects is contained in a vintage hotel setting that rivals Hollywood’s best movie sets.
Located across the street from CityCenter and The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, Eli Roth’s Goretorium also includes a freaky, 60’s inspired lounge called “Baby Dolls.” Featuring a magnificent view of City Center, the bar will entertain with caged zombie dancers and live feedings. Goretorium also features a one-of-a-kind horror retail shop and a venue for premiere events with a to-go bar called “Bloody Mary’s.”
Tickets now available at at the Goretorium website. Also become a fan on Facebook to keep updated.
The main features of the Goretorium include: A Year-Round Maze, Bloody Mary’s Bar, Baby Dolls Lounge, Wedding Chapel and Zombie Feedings.
“The “Goretorium” will be a destination for both horror fans and tourists from around the world, 365 days a year,” Roth said. “We are creating the most intense live terror experience a person can have, incorporating the latest technology with old-fashioned scares. This will be the premiere haunted experience in the world, filled with all kinds of surprises. I’ve spent years planning this, and all my nightmares are finally coming true. No matter which haunted houses you’ve been through, you have never been through anything quite like the “Goretorium”.”
Eli Roth’s Goretorium is the brainchild of Roth, best known as the creator of the Hostel and Cabin Fever franchises, and for his role in front of the camera as Donny “The Bear Jew” Donowitz in Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds for which he won SAG Best Ensemble and BFCA Critic’s Choice Award for Best Acting Ensemble. His film label “Eli Roth Presents” produced the enormously successful horror hit The Last Exorcism, and he currently is shooting the horror series “Hemlock Grove” for Netflix.

New Documentaries Explore the Cult Legacies of ‘The Keep’ and ‘Wolfen’; Watch the Trailers Now [Exclusive]
Undersung werewolf gem Wolfen and Michael Mann’s The Keep get the spotlight in a pair of feature documentaries acquired by Antenna Releasing.
A World War II Fairy Tale, which covers the infamous production of and reception to The Keep, will receive a limited theatrical release in October, followed by a TVOD release on Apple/Amazon. The Keep will also screen as a double feature for some showings.
For Uncovering Wolfen, Antenna eyes a limited theatrical release for 2027. Both films are currently available for booking via Antenna prior to their theatrical and digital releases.
Both documentaries are directed by Stewart Buck, who co-helms with Stéphane Piter on A World War II Fairy Tale.
“We at Antenna are obsessed with film history,” said Chief Acquisitions Officer Billy Ray Brewton. “Stewart has done such a remarkable job of really diving into the deepest recesses of how these films were made and, in doing so, has created the definitive histories of both projects.”
“We’re delighted to be partnering with Antenna Releasing!” said director Buck. “It’s refreshing to see a filmmaker-friendly approach to distribution with people who know what it’s like to be in the trenches with independent projects that struggle to find a home in the crowded marketplace.”
Check out our exclusive trailer and poster reveal of both documentaries below.
Released in 1983, Michael Mann’s The Keep was a notorious box office bomb, critically lambasted and all but forgotten for years, save for the fascination with Tangerine Dream’s iconic score. In recent years, the film has enjoyed a bit of a resurgence and is widely considered a cult classic, though director Michael Mann and many cast members refuse to acknowledge it.
Wolfen, on the other hand, was critical success but was overshadowed heavily by its flashier 1981 siblings An American Werewolf in London and The Howling. It’s also a trailblazer for socio-political horror, and the doc will explore that via the craftspeople who made it.
Look for them both in theaters soon. Stay tuned for more as it arrives.
