Bringing It Back

Grindhouse (2007)

| The Movie |

An homage to exploitation B-movie thrillers that combines two feature-length segments into one double-bill designed to replicate the grind house theatergoing experience of the 70s and 80s. In "Death Proof," a psycho named Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell) stalks and kills beautiful women with his car. In "Planet Terror," a small-town sheriffs' department has to deal with an outbreak of murderous, infected people called "sickos." A gun-legged woman named Cherry (Rose McGowan) and her martial arts-wielding partner (Freddy Rodriguez) take on the zombie army. The two films will be fused together by fake movie trailers. Written by prettypoison


__This movie should prove to be one hell of a production. It's been a while since we've seen a double feature and who better to direct it that Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. They have both accomplished so much in their careers and have delivered such films as Kill Bill, From Dusk Till Dawn, and Reservoir Dogs which have drawn our attention for many years. The first time I saw the trailer for this film I was in love. Not only because I am looking forward to the return of the double feature but it also stars one of my favorite actresses to this day Rose McGowan.



| Rose McGowan |

__Most of you are aware that Rose McGowan also stars in my favorite television series Charmed (seen on cables TNT station) and has also starred in such films as Jawbreaker and Scream with Neve Campbelle. In this film she plays the hardcore heroine Cherry who's armed with semi automatic weapon in place of one of her legs. Cherry has a personal vendetta to put an end to the zombie nation that has begun to surface. With her martial arts wielding partner played by Freddie Rodriguez, she is ready to kick ass and take names. If your familiar with Rose's past work then you would agree this is new territory to her as far as playing the hardcore action hero.
