GRINDHOUSE NOW AVAILABLE

GRINDHOUSE NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

HERE IS THE SUMMARY FOR THE MOVIE GRINDHOUSE FROM IMDB

From cult movie directors Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez comes a unique film experience: a double-bill of thrillers that recall both filmmakers' favorite exploitation films. "Grindhouse" (a downtown movie theater in disrepair since its glory days as a movie palace known for "grinding out" non-stop double-bill programs of B-movies) is presented as one full-length feature comprised of two individual films helmed separately by each director. Tarantino's film, "Death Proof," is a rip-roaring slasher flick where the killer pursues his victims with a car rather than a knife, while Rodriguez's film "Planet Terror" shows us a view of the world in the midst of a zombie outbreak. The films are joined together by clever faux trailers that recall the '50s exploitation drive-in classics. Written by alfiehitchie

HERE IS A REVIEW OF THE MOVIE GRINDHOUSE FROM DVDTALK

As an exercise in aging-movie-geek nostalgia, "Grindhouse" is a bloody good time. It's an homage to the theaters of the 1960s and '70s that would show double features or marathons of schlocky, exploitative films -- kung fu flicks, blaxploitation, zombie movies, spaghetti Westerns -- the kinds of films whose titles and posters were always more creative than the movies themselves. Gratuitous violence and nudity were the rule. The prints were usually scratchy and damaged, having been run through a thousand projectors a thousand times already. My description comes from a purely historical, not personal, standpoint. For the most part, the grindhouse theaters died with the '70s, and it's a good bet that the vast majority of "Grindhouse's" target audience has never actually been to one. We've seen some of the films, sure, but mostly on video or at midnight screenings at the local college theater. The whole grindhouse experience -- the battered prints, the noisy projector, the salacious coming attractions -- that's all academic. We're taking Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's word for it that this is how it was.
