If he was replaced with pretty much anyone else Id be worried, but Kurt Russell is one of my favourite actors and Im sure he'll do a great job.

I'm looking forward to it! It was filmed here in Austin, where I live, and I can't wait to see it. Tarantino and Rodriguez never cease to amaze me!

It'll also be really cool to see "Grind House" because Cathy Baron, who is one of the leads in "Severed Lives", as a scantily clad pedestrian who gets spanked by a female police officer...loads of fun.

Tarantino is doing a slasher flick, with Kurt Russel playing the killer (named Stuntman Mike)

Im not sure the name of Rodriguez's short, but it's supposedly going to be a zombie type thing.

In between the two films, they're going to have fake trailers and ad's for fake stuff...the whole thing sounds really cool.
sounds like it will be awsomes, much thanks.

It's not two SHORT horror movies, is it? I heard both were 90 minutes in length, and linked by fake trailers - pushing the runtime somewhere just above 3 hours. Quentin comfirmed this in a report I read a while back (3 months or more), with the following statement being along the lines of "Two feature-length movies. Audiences will be getting their moneys worth."

Personally, I can't believe anyone who claims to be a horror fan - let alone fan of film in general - isn't looking forward to this. If there were ever a person who could express their love of cinema, it would be Quentin Tarintino, the high school drop-out. I don't think anyone could call him a hack. I've yet to see another director who utilizes film, soundtrack and script as well as he does. His features just ooze style, and this is no exception.

Rev. Rod gives that one an Amen Brother!

And yeah both scripts logged in at over 100 pages, so we're looking at an honest-to-god double feature here. May cost 'em at he box office (running time dictates you can only screen half as often as most horror films) but they're setting the bar pretty high on the cool scale.:D

Can't fucking wait.

Any idea on the release date?

I know it's been pushed back a few times...was gunning for Easter weekend last I heared.

As for my thoughts on the film, I think Rod nicely summed it up:

It looks kind of amusing to me. I'll probably see it because I saw Nicky Katt in the trailer, and he's the man.

All right, here goes

Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino have teamed up to release an old-fashioned "grindhouse" double feature called GRINDHOUSE. Rodriguez' instalment is called PLANET TERROR and it's a zombie apocalypse story with Rose McGowan, Tom Savini, Rosario Dawson and a dozen others.

Tarantino's is called DEATH PROOF and it stars Kurt Russell as a stuntman-by-day/killer-by-night who runs people over in his car that he has reinforced to make it death-proof - hence the title.

In between the two films there will be phoney 70's style "grindhouse" movie trailers directed by Eli Roth and others.

It should be the single most fun film of 2007 (with the possible exception of 300)
