We told you back in April that Eli Roth was planning on making two films back-to-back; one being a Sci-Fi monster movie and the other being his eagerly awaited Thanksgiving slasher film.

While promoting Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds in Cannes, Roth revealed a little more about both of the films including the title for his Sci-Fi flick, Endangered Species.

“But I want to tack on three weeks at the end of it – like, 18 days. The way I did Nation’s Pride [the film-within-a-film from Inglourious Basterds], that’s how I want to shoot Thanksgiving. I just want to go, go, go. Get as much footage, and as many kills as possible, and not be self-conscious. Because when you’re moving at that speed, you’re not thinking, you’re just feeling and you’re going on instinct. And that’s where the best stuff comes from. There’s an energy to that Grindhouse trailer for Thanksgiving that, for me caught the spirit of the movie. And I was like, ‘What if I did this for three weeks?’ No pretensions. Just, ‘Fuck it. Let’s make a fifth movie, do it fast, bang it out and make it great.’ I mean, still take it seriously, as a real movie, but just do it in 18 says and see what the hell happens when I really push myself.”
