![]() Grindhouse Presents Death Proof $4.71 I was looking forward to seeing Zoe Bell, the stuntwoman, in a dramatic role, especially with a great action filmmaker like Quentin Tarentino at the helm. But the first part of the move and the second part do not mesh together well. It's unfortunately like two separate stories with some parallel themes and one common denominator psycho killer character (Kurt Russell). Give Zoe some acting lessons and she's gonna burn up the screen doing her own stunts and bringing her own special flair. Well photographed! A little self indulgent. Still enjoyable. ![]() Grindhouse Presents, Planet Terror - Extended and Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition) $12.95 I just watched this move for second time last night. I turned my roommate on to it and he also gave it two big thumbs up and a giant satisfied grin. Robert Rodriguez directed another instantaneous classic for horror, zombie and comdey fans alike. Rose McGowan made this movie the exciting, fun and touching spectacle of enjoyment that it is. Also, Bruce Willis contributes his brand of tough guy coolness. The rest of the great cast, the effects, the zombies (etc.) make this flick safun to watch all over again. I'm looking forward to watching it for the third, fourth, fifth (etc.) times as well. Another great buy from a great sale/resale venue. ![]() Grindhouse Presents: Planet Terror 3-disc Steelbook and Death Proof 3-disc Steelbook $69.99 These were released at Best Buy stores in Limited Edition Steelbook Cases and were quickly sold out within days of each release. Sought after by hardcore fans of Tarantino and Rodriguez. Each Film was a 2 Disc set + a bonus disc of featurettes inside the case also a Best Buy Exclusive! ![]() Planet Terror (2-Disc Special Edition) [Blu-ray] $29.95 This Blu Ray is amazing. If your a horror fan, I feel like you almost have to like this one. Funny, gorry, sexy, and straight up RAW. A great cast with amazing looking woman. This was the first half of the Grindhouse double feature when it was originally released along with its counter part, Quitin Tarrantino's Deathproof. Made to look like a grainy 1970's horror, you would think a bluray version would be obsolete, but you would be wrong! The Blu Ray version comes with an option to watch the movie with or without the grainy 1970s film looking effect. This results in a crisp clean 1080P looking Planet Terror, or a choppy, grainy 1970s feeling Planet Terror. In my opinion the film is WAY more enjoyable in crisp clean 1080P, and you can see and appreciate the cheesy gore and explosions in a more detailed way. So if you like horror, like good lookin girls, and like Bruce Willis, and have a Blu Ray Player, definately pick this one up. Oh, and watch for Quintin Tarrantinos guest appearance! (Too bad Death Proof SUCKED!!!) |
