GRINDHOUSE Double Feature, Uh Huh!
February 17, 2007
(Teaser poster images from Robert Rodriguez’s website Troublemaker Studios)
Can’t wait to see Quentin Tarantino’s and Robert Rodriguez’s new movies, DEATH PROOF and PLANET TERROR. They are being shown as a double feature presented under the name GRINDHOUSE. Above are the teaser posters which look so deliciously violent and fun – totally building on the tradition of the exploitation film that has influenced them both so much. The website for GRINDHOUSE is also such a treat to see. Gorgeous motion graphics with dirty print film, dusty old movie theater details and blood dripping from logos and buttons. Really knocked my socks off.
And as far as my thoughts on the preview of GRINDHOUSE I have three words to describe my favorite part…
“Machine Gun Leg!”
Need I say more? I’m there!
