Eli Roth is on cloud nine with his new horror flick "Dream Eater" ... calling it a dream come true as his twisted sleepwalking nightmare finally stalks its way into theaters this week.
The horror king himself hit up "TMZ Live" Monday ... telling us the movie's plot was so nightmarish, actors flat-out admitted the script was too intense, forcing the directors to roll up their sleeves and play the parts themselves!

Grant Ellis may or may not have joined "The Bachelor" for the 'wrong reasons' -- but who cares? Dude was destined to be a rap star after dropping bars on our "TMZ After Dark" tour ... with a little extra fuel courtesy of Monster Energy!
Check it out -- the hunky reality star lit up the party bus Saturday night ... roses in one hand, Monster in the other ... wooing the ladies with promises he had enough of both to go around.
Of course, the ladies were fighting for those roses ... and Grant made a whole show of it — handing one to a lucky gal before they all hit the bars, knocked back shots, and took their turn on the mechanical bulls.

Hazel-E isn't a doctor ... but, she's got a good one if you're looking to enhance your booty -- and, she's ready to hook you up on our "TMZ After Dark" tour!
The reality television star jumped on our tour bus ... partying with our riders as they hit up some of the hottest spots in Hollywood Saturday night.

Master P might be in control in the studio ... but, Farrah Abraham took charge while with him on the TMZ Tour Bus -- throwing it back in his face Saturday night!
Our "TMZ After Dark" tour is so popular we've decided to add a second bus on Saturday nights to give more fans a chance to experience a wild evening out in Hollywood ... and, we got the two stars to each host one of the rides!
Master P's bus left at 7:30 PM while Farrah's left at 8 PM ... but, the two stars got on the same bus for a minute -- during which Farrah out on a show using the pole up front.
Farrah Abraham just hijacked our livestream ... and trust us, if this is anything to go by, the "TMZ After Dark Tour" this weekend is about to be the wildest yet, 'cause she's hosting it Saturday night!

As you know ... Ray J and Kim K used to date -- he's the dude from the now infamous sex tape -- and, though he's far removed from the relationship, it seems he still knows how to use his ex for an extra wisecrack here and there.

Now he’s taking that energy straight to the streets of Hollywood. The "TMZ After Dark Tour" has turned into L.A.'s hottest ride, selling out every Friday and Saturday with Ray J at the helm. Fans call it a “concert on wheels” — music blasting, paparazzi moments, free shots, and Ray J right in the middle.
