I was incredibly impressed by the second fragment of Grindhouse: Planet Terror. It is that kind of movie that you can leave the cinema before it ends, or you can be captured for its insanity and non-sense violence and irony. You need a genius (and Robert Rodriguez who wrote and directed the movie, is, indeed) if you pretend any possibility to make the second thing happen, with such an extremely Splatter movie :-)

You can definitely see that Rodriguez had a lot of fun directing it! He must be ‘orgasmically’ pleased to being able to put on a film EVERY scene and EVERY shot he directed.

What about the characters created by RR.. ?!? Cherry (Rose McGowan), the gogo dancer who loses her left leg, J.T. (Jeff Fahey) the fool BBQ owner, Lt. Muldoon (Bruce Willis) with his unutterable secrets, and at least other 5 incredible ones.

This could be the most important difference between Planet Terror and Death Proof. In the first movie, Tarantino had a great satisfaction of the exterior appearence, in the second one is Rodriguez’s insanity that dominates everything.

just to taste:

Lt. Muldoon: Where are my men?
Abby: [ throws a bag to Lt. Muldoon] I put several right here.
Lt. Muldoon: What the fuck is this?
Abby: Their balls, sweetheart.

I really suggest to watch it, but don’t be disapponted if the former thing happens ;-)
