Grindhouse mpg

Paying homage to the unapologetic exploitation films of the 1970s, often shown in the now-defunct "grindhouse" movie theatres, Quentin Tarantino, the director of Pulp Fiction (1994), and Robert Rodriguez, the director of Sin City (2005), team up to offer a white-knuckle cinematic thrill-ride, just like they used to make them. Interspersed with five unabashedly outrageous faux trailers--Machete (2010), Werewolf Women of the S.S. (2007), Don't (2007), Thanksgiving (2007), and Hobo with a Shotgun (2011)--the double feature consists of two diverse, stand-alone movies. In Planet Terror (2007), a feisty go-go dancer and a handful of survivors do battle with an ever-increasing army of ravenous cannibalistic zombies, while in Death Proof (2007), a misogynistic former Hollywood stunt double takes great pleasure in playing deadly cat-and-mouse games with unsuspecting women, driving his reinforced 1969 Dodge Charger. Do you fancy a wild ride?
