Grind House

[Rok]

I could have sworn we had a topic on this already. Went to bump it but came up with no matches. Weird. But I know we've talked about this on the board. Read some news about it today as well as a new teaser(GRINDHOUSE on Yahoo! Movies) being out this week. <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Writer-Director-Rocker Rob Zombie is directing a trailer for GRINDHOUSE. It will be an exploitation film called WEREWOLF WOMEN OF THE SS which will feature Nicolas Cage as the evil asian villain Dr Fu Manchu. Eli Roth has directed a slasher film trailer called THANKSGIVING. No word yet on Edgar Wright's trailer.</div>If this is true, great news and surprized they got Cage to do a part in one of the trailers. Especially one with that kind of plot(Cage in a Fu Manchu

). Hopefully they get Miike to do a trailer as well with Wright/Zombie/Roth.

I thought we had a topic about this alsoCage in a Fu Manchu. Thats gotta be some great make-up artist. I would love to see Cage get involved with this stuff, would be interesting

Both of the movies look pretty stupid in my opinion. Not my type of film.

Eh, but your right in that this is not a type of film for everyone. That's why I think this film won't do well at the box office. It doesn't follow the Hollywood formula.

 

[LAZY]

I also think it wont do very well in the box office. Which is why I think it should be put as a Indie movie. Because if Taranteno/Rodriguez push it as a main Hollywood film and get it out in the spot light, its gonna get terrible reviews

Knowing this topic has generated zero buzz on BBW. I'm just bumping because of the latest news of it being NC-17, and if it stays that way for it's theater run, pretty much shuts out most of BBW anyway lol.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The NY Post reports: The people who dole out ratings at the Motion Picture Assn. of America just might flip out when they see "Grindhouse," Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's tribute to the ultraviolent, nudity-drenched pictures that once screened 'round the clock in the grungy movie palaces of 42nd Street. The Weinstein Company, which is releasing the picture April 6 through its Dimension Films arm, needs an R rating for the flick to get into mainstream theaters. But, "some of it is so graphic and outrageous for a major Hollywood studio, there's no question it's headed for an NC-17 without big cuts," says a Page Six operative, who got a sneak peek at the most over-the-top footage. "Grindhouse" is actually two short movies - one directed by Tarantino, the other by Rodriguez - with an intermission between them. During the break, a series of fake trailers will be shown for such fictitious titles as "Werewolf Women of the SS," directed by Rob Zombie. "In one scene, a cute, topless girl is roughly tied down on a table by evil female Nazi experimenters who begin draining her blood and, as she screams in agony, they brand her like livestock with a coal-hot steel swastika," our source said. "And every girl in the Nazi concentration camp is topless." Another trailer, directed by Eli Roth, of "Hostel" fame, is called "Thanksgiving," in which a town's celebration of Turkey Day is interrupted by a mad slasher. "There's a part where Jordan Ladd [daughter of Cheryl Ladd of 'Charlie's Angels']is in a car with her boyfriend and giving him [oral sex] when she lovingly reaches to stroke his hair and discovers his neck is just a bloody stump - some maniac had just cut off his head while she was in the act." Later, a frisky cheerleader climbs onto a trampoline and begins stripping naked as she jumps up and down until she does a split and her skirt blows up without panties underneath. "You get the full 'Britney Spears-getting-out-of-the-limo view,' " our source says. Another jolting scene shows a grossly obese man chewing on a baby. How much of these moviegoers will end up seeing is anybody's guess. "Some cuts definitely will have to be made. There's no question," conceded one studio insider. A Dimension rep declined comment.</div>

At my theatre on Friday, the reviews look great, going to see it on Saturday.Grindhouse currently has a 90% Tomato Rating, wow.

 

[Rok]

I thought this movie wasn't your type BCB? I'm going Saturday as well, can't opening day due to work.

 

[7Goat]

I'm going to be seeing this. I've been eying it for a while, and both look pretty cool.

 

[TheBigO]

Ill be watching this also, I like Tarantinos work

 

[Michael Bryant]

Anybody who's actually watched a double-feature back in the 70's will get all the references in the movie.

 

[Justice]

I saw it a few days back. I haven't seen any old 70's movies, but I got the idea.

 

[koopa]

just got back from out of town cause the theater here didn't have it, and it was pretty good, planet terror was funny and nice action...........but Quentin Tarantino movie was a huge let down, they should've probably played that movie first, cause you can't go from good to pretty much sh*t, it had good parts but overall it was just boring with all the talking.............Quentin was great in planet terror though...............qt- I'm gonna go get my dick wetthe other dude- she only has one legqt- easier accessdamn that was great lol........I don't know if that is the exact quote, but it's along those lines lol

I watched the first one and was pretty entertained by it, but I didn't even bother watching the second one. All I know is it was like, "Hey hey, go give that guy a lapdance." I could never understand what the F*ck was going on. The first movie was awesome though.

Nothing beats a tire to the face.Also, Kurt Russell's 360 is a great laugh, bad ass to pussy.
