DEATH PROOF and PLANET TERROR reviewed

firstly ...planet terror...

awesome !!!!!!!!!!! three thumbs up !!!!!!!!!!


secondly....death proof....

its a chick flick!!!!! talk about an excess of talking scenes

take out 90 percent of the yapping scenes and you'd only have
10 percent of the movie left !!!!!!

tell me.....if he ended the movie with three MEN celebrating bashing
the absolute suitcase out of a WOMAN ......how would that go down ?

How is it a chick flick? I don't think the chicks who see chick flicks watch chich flicks about chicks talking about flicks and lapdances instead of chick flick things normally spoken of in chick flicks.

ok ....if i must !!!!!!!!!!

death proof......yap yap yap yap and a little bit more yap !

planet terror......as with "yap proof", these movies were contrived to re-create the feel , look , and story-lines of the flicks shown at the notorious movie houses littering the 42nd district during the 1970's and 80's known collectively as "grindhouse"

replete with quasi-audience sound effects and artificially induced film-stock dust and scatches [known as 'artefacts"] director robert rodrigues pulls out all stops in giving us a high octane ride into zombie based fantasy

the script whilst functional gives way to "set-piece " direction making the film seem more like a series of episodes rather than a fluid singualar experience ..... it may be no mere coincidence that this style of horror was pioneered by the italian directors argento and fulci , major players of the grindhouse movement

the original grindhouse movies had one aim in mind ; entertainment and to that end , planet terror succeeds
