It's true, every new director to come along in horror with their "next big thing" tends to get the hype as if they invented the genre. And it's true I haven't heard as much about Roth recently but then that's probably because he isn't putting out much right now. I felt like Cabin Fever was pretty inventive and had a very particular voice that wasn't common at the time, but then I was disappointed by the Hostel series that didn't seem to bring anything new except a lot of gore that I think was it's biggest source of hype.
Overall, Roth makes a few cameos and puts his name on a lot of projects but doesn't actually helm anything.
