Actor and director Eli Roth has recalled filming a scene for Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds saying "we were almost killed doing that".
A scene in the 2009 film sees a French cinema being burned to the ground and Roth told HuffPost Live that things got a little out of hand as parts of the set began to catch fire for real.
"We were almost killed doing that sequence", he said. "[The flames] were spreading so exponentially. They (fire safety experts) said if we were in there another 15 seconds, the stage we were on would have collapsed and we all would have been killed."
Inglorious Basterds also stars Brad Pitt, Diane Kruger, Christoph Waltz (who picked up the Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role as the villainous Nazi Colonel Hans Landa), Michael Fassbender and Daniel Bruhl. It earned a whopping $321.4 million in the worldwide box office from a production budget of $70 million.
