Hostel director Eli Roth has been tapped by Dimension to direct the adaptation of the Stephen King novel Cell. In the book, a world-wide pulse sent out via cell phones turns people into murderous zombies.
Roth will segue into Cell when he finishes his work on Hostel 2, the sequel to this year's first horror hit. Hostel 2 is set for a theatrical bow later this year.
