Grindhouse-like Flicks
I just re-watched Planet Terror and Death Proof for the seventh time, and I have a craving. I need more films similar in style to these two flicks. Not similar in story, specifically... rather the FEEL of the films, the atmosphere. I love the look of the film (like an old photograph), the dirt and scratches, and the poor editing. I love the music and the dialogue... and everything, really. I just want some more films like these.
Since these two films were obviously homage-type films to, well... the Grindhouse genre, it shouldn't be to impossible to find a few recommendations, right? I am aware that there are double-feature DVDs released under a "Grindhouse" logo... are these similar films? I haven't checked any of them out. I found the latter part of Rob Zombie's Halloween to have the same feel as PT/DP. As well as a film I watched last October, The Slumber Party Massacre.

In the Death Proof vein...
Two-Lane Blacktop Vanishing Point (the references to this one and Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry in Death Proof are rather overwhelming) Race With the Devil Duel and Night of the Creeps is totally in the same vein as Planet Terror
