Moriarty, The debate of "grindhouse" as a genre or epoc by comedian_x	Apr 11th, 2007 08:38:17 AM
mirrors the debate that raged over film noir. Was film noir just a period of filmmaking that occurred in the post world war 2 malaise? It can be easily argued that this is the case. However, since certain films have taken so completely the mood and tone of that era that it could be called a genre or at least a sub-genre. Now, Moriarty, you see seem to taking the same approach that Paul Schrader took with film noir ie, grindhouse is epoch only. However, just like the in the Seventies critics took delight in calling every other film "neo-noir," we have reached a similar junction. My God man, don't you see? See there in the distance the demonic silhouetted forms of Roth and Zombie riding upon their pig-like steeds -- with grindhouse as genre in their wake. Run, run for your lives. They're coming... they're coming...

Your reviews are usually dead on. I'll find this one on rental when I get the chance. Thanks again.
Is this grindhouse? by criticalbliss	Apr 11th, 2007 09:00:32 AM
Good, now go punch some babies. Heh heh.
If you imagine the line "Something... by Childe Roland	Apr 11th, 2007 09:03:20 AM
...has gone terribly wrong" in an Eric Idle as narrator type of accent, it will automatically make you laugh. I don't care what kind of documentary you're watching. In fact, the next time you're watching some kind of meerkat special on animal planet with someone else in the room, wait for a lull in the narration and bust out a very low key British "something has gone terribly wrong" and see how hard the other person laughs.
MORIARTY=GAY SHOES by gride9000	Apr 11th, 2007 09:33:36 AM
Baby killing, I could never imaginneer anything like someone named Drew Mcweeny killing and baby unless the picture is a mother's revenge thing. That's pretty good, nerd kills baby due to frustration with evolovig slang he can't keep up with, mother seeks revenge. THAT"S SO GRINDHOUSEISHISTIC
HOW BOUT WE START SAYING: by gride9000	Apr 11th, 2007 09:36:55 AM
GRINDHOUSESQUE
I met those guys at SXSW by Geekscape	Apr 11th, 2007 09:40:46 AM
And they were super nice. It stinks that their screenings were the second weekend because I missed it too. But the reason it was playing the second weekend is the coolest thing yet... they are in a rock band! Directors by day! Rock band by night! They're funny and ridiculous guys. They deserve kudos for a fun as hell film.

Punching babies in the face is so... by Childe Roland	Apr 11th, 2007 10:58:34 AM
...grindhouse. I mean, like, totally grindhouse, dude. You do that in front of their moms and they'll go all grindhouse on your ass, too. Then it will be a compelte fucking grindhouse up in this mother, what with all the grind to the house and grindhousing of grindhouses. Grindhouse? Grindhouse. Grindhouse, G.R. Indhouse

I waiting for 3 Kicks to the Head, Part 3 by 12-GAUGE	Apr 11th, 2007 12:27:11 PM
That movie was only mentioned in Death Proof, but I think it deserves at least a trailer.
I don't think Road Warrior was very grindhousely made. by LaneMyersClassic	Apr 11th, 2007 12:31:43 PM
That was an adverb. Mad Max was pure grindhouse.

Great video.I doubt it'll make anyone see the error of their ways as I bet that most firsters don't read past their magnificent achievement.
I liked that opening better the first time I read it... by SnowMann	Apr 11th, 2007 01:35:30 PM
You know... when Vern said it... yesterday. In his Grindhouse review. Soon instead of seeing Grindhouse used repeatedly as an adjective to be cool, we'll be seeing how cool it is to hate the word Grindhouse used as an adjective. Then hopefully someone will write an article about that, and someone else will point out sarcastically this talkback entry already exists.
The trailer is damn funny.... by Ninja Nerd	Apr 11th, 2007 02:05:23 PM
http://www.devildaredmeto.com/ This one, I have to see. I actually did the "bike down a hill with rockets" bit when I was 12 or 13, but only suffered some 1st and 2nd degree burns and had a nice snack of dirt when I faceplanted on the landing.
Id punch a fetus by EdRyder	Apr 11th, 2007 02:47:58 PM

Too Grindhouse-y by tomthumbstallywhacker	Apr 11th, 2007 07:34:51 PM
There. OK?
This looks great. Very grindhousey. Not too venomy. by Bronx Cheer	Apr 11th, 2007 07:35:42 PM
Looks a lot better than Death Proof.
You can't MAKE a Grindhouse movie... by voxmortis	Apr 11th, 2007 07:38:57 PM
...just like you can't make a 'so bad it's good' movie... just like you can't make a 'cult classic' - they just become them after an arbitrary period of time. Unless it's anything by Edgar Wright, of course, then it's an instant cult classic. Just add ice cream.
@ voxmortis by tomthumbstallywhacker	Apr 11th, 2007 07:46:15 PM
Word.
I still think the whole grindhouse thing is overblown. by Bronx Cheer	Apr 11th, 2007 07:54:46 PM
The exaltation of crap. What's next? Proclaim Sidney Sheldon the next Shakespeare? It's fun stuff, but there is not one of those exploitation films that's worthy of preservation, except as an artifact demonstrating the coarseness of our popular culture.
At the risk of getting some babies punched... by quentintarantado	Apr 12th, 2007 06:38:19 PM
Wouldn't Uwe Boll's movies qualify?

Death Proof.. by brando render	Apr 13th, 2007 10:14:38 AM
..was the first thing I thought of when I saw the artwork for this. The main difference between this and Death Proof is that DEVIL was great.
