Recently we heard that Eli Roth wouldn't be directing Hostel 3, and now the rumour is that one of the producers of the first two will be directing. Scott Spiegel was an executive producer on the first two, and it looks like he'll be writing and directing the third.

I'm less and less excited about a third Hostel film. I'm beginning to agree with Eli Roth when he said they should leave it at two.

Eli Roth decided not to direct the third, after saying that he thought it was finished after Hostel (Filmstalker review) and Hostel II (Filmstalker review). Bloody Disgusting say the actor, writer, producer and director Scott Spiegel is in talks to take over. I'm not overly familiar with his work, other than the two Hostel films be produced, and the fact he wrote Evil Dead II. Considering Hostel III is expected to go straight to DVD, the studio isn't showing much faith in it.

Any one out there know more about him? Could he make a decent Hostel III?
