Seriously. Planet Terror is great, it's got great characters, decent action a keen sense of wit and plenty of wink-wink-nudge-nudge Grindhouse bullshit so that you remember, "LOL ITS MADE TO BE BAD". It's the movie that you'd make if you were a millionaire 14 year old.

Deathproof is a great chance to watch one of film's most idiosyncratic directors shed the veil of "art" and the pressure of the sophomore slump to make the kind of goofy movie he always wanted to. It didn't need the fake-out shitty film stock or the B-List acting to carry the weight. It was a genuinely bad-good film that prized execution over technique.

I was more than happy to see Planet Terror end, but it was Deathproof that I wanted another 30 minutes of.

ALSO: The people behind me were grade A pissed that the theater lost TWO reels of the film. LOLZOR.

She has a mug of some mystery liquid on her desk. It smells like pee and it's covered in mold. Also, I have to go UNLOAD ICECREAM AT MIDNIGHT. Fuuuck.

I just came back from Grindhouse

I agree with GilloD 100%

I fucken LOVED Planet Terror and thought that Death Proof would leave me flat because of that fact. But I ended up loving Death Proof even more.

Death Proof was all about Kurt Russel. Oh man, that dude is such a fucken pimp in the earlier part of the movie. Also, I litterally cheered and pumped my fist at the end of Death Proof :rofl

Both movies were awesome though, best $5 ever.

More members to the DP cult! Excelllent! I still say that DP was far too good for GH, and that it should have been a standalone flick.
