I saw that movie in the theater. I think you're exaggerating a bit with "a million times".

The French film 'Pola X' had some real sex goin' on in it also.

I just saw him last week in the film 'Sherry Baby'.

OK, please tell me someone else saw the Halloween trailer in the previews.

Did anyone ever see the trailer that was cut from the film about the psycho nun?

If you watch porn then I guess it's no big deal.

Yeah, the music was good, but he's usually pretty good with the use of music. "Blow Out"? Is that where I heard that song from? There was one song in "Death Proof" that I know I heard in another movie before. I was thinking "Night of the Lepus" though. I wonder if it's gonna be on the soundtrack, because I wanna the name of it. I wanna know the name of the song Rose was dancing to too.

AnckSuNamun said:

I love the Death Proof soundtrack. "Chick Habit" is stuck in my head now, though, and I don't know if I'll ever get it out.

Grindhouse. Saw it. Loved it. The 70s thing brought back memories.

1st half started out kind of confusing, but was so fast paced it worked itself out quickly, not a whole lot of long drawn out dialog. Gory, corny, funny and action packed. Rodriguez made it work, no lose ends from what I saw. Rose, liked her before, love her now. Gotta look up Ava Gardner. 2nd half, a lot more character developement, very intense, not as gory, but what gore there was hit hard. Zoe, you are the woman. Yeah, you are okay Tracie, tapped that @** real good.

AnckSuNamun said:

I didn't see that. From what I saw of it that doesn't look like it would fit with any of the other trailers.

morningsong said:

Yeah it wasn't part of Grindhouse. It was for a film festival in Austin and a bunch of people made them. She kinda confused me, too. But then I realized what she meant.

AnckSuNamun said:

Who watches porn? Certainly not me.

I love 'em both but.....

Rose is my Goddess.

I swear I've been waiting my entire life for Rose McGowan and her machine gun leg.

damn i wish i could wear a string o' ammo as an outfit

and im a bit afraid to see the movie...after reading all of u guys' comments

Yeah suuuuure. Your secret's safe with me Maybe I should start a "Recommend some good Porn" thread. I'll see how long it'll take before you can't contain yourself.

That Rolling Stone cover looks good, I think I'll get it next time I'm out.

Saw it last night. A Tarantino movie is like a drunken one-night stand: It's sooo fun, but there is such guilt afterwards!

!!!!WARNING: POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW!!!!

Things I liked:
* Freddy Rodriguez. He rocked it! He was definitely an underused talent on Six Feet Under, and it's good to see him in the limelight.

* Rose McGowan. I went in hating her... and I only now realized why! (I'd been confusing her with Shannen Doherty -- a COMPLETELY different gal -- whom I CAN'T STAND!!!) Rose did a great job. Simultaneously funny and sexy. Almost makes up for the whole Marilyn Manson embarrassment.

* Sydney Tamila Poitier. Um... WOW!

* Nice to see some B-Movie royalty acknowledged: Sybil Danning (who doesn't seem to age), Jeff Fahey (who has aged quite a bit... but he still has those great eyes), etc.

* Jack Nitzsche's song "The Last Race" as featured in Death Proof. I first heard that song as a 9-year-old insomniac in the HORRIBLE cult classic Village of the Giants. I loved the whole drugged-out surfer feel and have had that guitar line buried in my head for over 25 years. Now -- finally -- I not only have the name of it, but a remastered version of it courtesy the Death Proof soundtrack!!!


Things I didn't like:
* Eli Roth with too much eye liner on! Dude looked like friggin' Lady Bunny. Ruined what otherwise might have been some pretty decent eye candy.

* Werewolf Women of the SS was wack. The idea is great... and the execution could've been funny. But it came off as trying too hard to be campy a la Howling 2 (which actually was laughable, because it made no hard attempt to be.) And Nick Cage as Fu Manchu was lame. They could've gotten someone really fun like Christopher Lee!!

* The gore was lame. I had no problem with the amount of it, actually. But if you're gonna use gallons of blood, make it look real!! I understand this was supposed to be a jab at bad horror, but the gore looked so fake that I was lost on its gross-out factor. The splattering blood during Planet Terror's shoot-outs should have been black, not bright red! (It was NIGHT, for goodness sake!) The blood on Kurt Russell's windshield looked like red Behr paint! And Quentin's melting genitalia looked like some meatballs in melting cheese. They could've hit us better than that.

* I thought the Zoe Bell/Tracie Thoms/Rosario Dawson banter was inconsistent in Death Proof. Their conversation was alterately fun and downright boring. Overall, it was a flawed redux of the earlier (and superior) conversation at the bar among the first set of girls. Plus the profanity -- even though it was supposed to be excessive -- came off as fake and distracting. The long, single-take shot in the cafe was ambitious, but the acting was just not convincing throughout. The girls MORE than made up for it in the chase scene, though. They did a great job there! (Tracie's tears, for example, were a PERFECT subtle touch. I'd like to think they were real and not glycerin.)

SPOILERS OVER

...OK, 'nuff of my two cents. And who the heck cares anyway? Tarantino and Rodriguez made a few million bucks this weekend. I'm broke, unknown and writing about them as I lay in bed in my jammies. :lol

And oh, yeah... Trejo in Machete was definitely a high point!

morningsong said:

Tracie was funny as hell in that....and that car hood trick with Zoe would've scared the shit out of me. That was one of the best car chases I've seen in a movie. I've always saw more of a resemblance in Susan Sarandon than Ava Gardner.
Or is it just me?

Lammastide said:

Village of the Giants! That's it. I knew it was some old movie I saw years ago that involved giants. Thanks for that. At first I thought "Land of the Giants", so I went searching for it on google and got the tv show.....so then I just assumed it was the movie about the giant rabbits, "Night of the Lepus". Oh my god, I gotta get that song. Nice review Freddy was pretty smooth with those gun tricks.

Lammastide said:

No props for Kurt Russell?? pssh.

live4lust said:

That's just total bias on my part. I've never been a big fan of Kurt. But he did a really good job -- came off as eccentric and downright sympathetic at first... and then spiraled into a raging psycho!!!

One of the greatest movies I've seen this year. Reviewers missed the joke, I love Rose McGowan and Kurt Russell but the previews were almost as good as the movie.

What the hell was up with the trailer for "Thanksgiving"? Was that a thermometer up his has at the end?

live4lust said:

Aw, okay. I'm going to have to admit I still don't get it. Sorry

AnckSuNamun said:

I most surely could "contain myself" if you were to make such a thread.

However, don't be surprised if some new orger uses that thread to post for the very first time.

sextonseven said:

Make sure you get a non-Siouxsie avvie this time to throw us off.

Slave2daGroove said:

The killer was fucking the "human" turkey at the end too.....everyone laughed at that part. I bet people reading this are sayin' "a melting dick, something so terrible that women are holding their vaginas, severed testicles, human turkey fucking....wtf?"

AnckSuNamun said:

I just got back from seeing the movie. THANKSGIVING was my favorite. I couldn't stop laughing because all the girls' dates were headless. Hahhahahaa!!!! And the human turkey at the end of that trailer was soooo disgusting.

I really liked the movie. I liked the first part more than the second. Although the car chase in the second movie was so incredible. It was great seeing the girls get their revenge.

ROSE MCGOWAN, what can I say. HOT!!!!! I didn't know Jordan Ladd was in it. I love her too. She's looking more and more like her mamma.

Freddie was sooo damn cute in this movie. He cheesed it up on purpose pretty good.

The gore was soooo over the top that it didn't gross me out.

Human turkey.... Thanksgiving has been getting a lot of attention. I hope Eli will turn it into a real movie since it's so well received.
