Oh and another point I forgot to make (I feel like Columbo). I always thought that Dusk was pretty much a grind-house movie, and an honest one at that.

It might not have something as ridiculous as a gun for a leg, but it does have a guy playing a corpse as a guitar and a vampire that eventually turns into a giant rat. And that rat was done like a ‘grind house’-effect, old school puppet style. Like I said the computer effects feel really out of place.

This will rule. And to think this is only one of TWO movies that will be shown.

Shadow Riot played at the Festival of Fear in 2005, so it’s definitely not a part of Tarantine and Rodriguez’ Grind House. That trailer is, as you suggested Sean, presented in such a way to emulate the historical grind house experience.

Well I guess it is a 2006 movie… still not sure if it’s connected to the Tarantino/Rodriguez thing. I don’t think so.

They mentioned they were going to divide the movie with fake trailers like this — and it has serious production values and the guy from Candyman in this trailer — this is defintely from Grindhouse watch it again and see, they’ve been saying that they are making these fake trailers to divide up the sections of the Grindhouse movie!

No, that other link isn’t from the same movie, but it gives a good idea of the style they were going for.

Keep in mind, the term “Grind House” is actually a common way of referring to this genre of old low budget exploitation flicks.

Are you really that excited? It looks a bit lame I think… They’re trying too hard. When Robert Rodriguez uses computer effects it totally gives it all away.

To be honest I’m kind of losing faith in these guys. It’s been ten years since they did something I thought was actually a good movie and not just some bullshit experiment. Pulp Fiction, Desperado and Dusk till Dawn I like, but evrything else has been pretty bad. I haven’t seen Sin City though..

I think Tarantino needs to make another good original movie for me to jump back on these experiments. I thought Kill Bill was terrible to sit through.
