Grindhouse (2007)

Grindhouse

FAQ



    A "Grindhouse" was a type of inner city theatre that would play all night marathons of low-budget exploitation films in the 1960s, '70s and early '80s. These down 'n' dirty theatres would often show offbeat ultraviolent and sexually charged films under the categories of Kung Fu (Shaw Brothers films), Hixploitation (White Lightning, Gator Bait), Blaxploitation (Shaft, Coffy, Superfly, Dolemite, The Mack), Sexploitation (Supervixens, The Swinging Cheerleaders), Zombie and Cannibal films (Dawn of the Dead, Zombi 2, Cannibal Holocaust), Biker films (The Wild Angels, The Glory Stompers, The Savage Seven, The Losers) among hundreds of other subgenres. In the suburbs during the 1960s and '70s, Drive-ins were the equivalent to the inner city Grindhouses. You could see many of the same kinds of films from the convenience of your car. The title of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's first collaboration From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) was named after the catch phrase for the all night Drive-in movie marathons. Both Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino grew up watching these kinds of films in Grindhouse theatres and drive-ins in the 1970s and early 1980s. When they became friends in the early 1990s they often held Exploitation film double features in their own home theaters (and also at QT's Film Fests in Austin, Texas). Flash forward to 2006, the two moviemaking pals decided to recreate these wild nights for movie audiences around the world by making their own traditional Grindhouse-Drive-In double feature extravaganza complete with two raunchy horror films, fake exploitation film trailers, ads and other cool treats.



    First: Robert Rodriguez brings us "Planet Terror" in which a town is overrun by disease infected sickos. Then comes Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof", in which a serial killer named Stuntman Mike murders people by the use of his stuntcar instead of a knife or machete. "Robert's film is Horror, it couldn't happen, but mine is Terror because it could."–Quentin Tarantino Before or in between the movies, there will be a series of fake movie trailers (as it was customary in old grindhouse theatres to show coming attractions in the double features). Robert Rodriguez presents a Mexploitation trailer starring the hard boiled actor Danny Trejo in the title role of "Machete". Edgar Wright (director of Shaun of the Dead) presents "Don't", a "70s style British horror film". Rob Zombie presents a Nazisploitation-sci-fi-horror flick "Werewolf Women of the S.S.", starring Sherri Moon Zombie, Sybill Danning, Udo Kier, Bill Mosely and Nicolas Cage as the legendary Asian mastermind Dr. Fu Manchu. Eli Roth's (Hostel) fake trailer is an ultraviolent homage to 1970s/'80s holiday themed slasher films called "Thanksgiving". An additional fake trailer called "Hobo with a Shotgun", created by Dartmouth, Nova Scotia filmmakers Jason Eisener, Rob Cotterill, and John Davies for Robert Rodriguez's SXSW Grindhouse Trailers contest, has been included in Canadian theaters. "Hobo with a Shotgun" is attached to the other regular trailers played before the main feature presentation which begins with "Machete".



    (1) Jason Eisener's, Rob Cotterill's and John Davies' "Hobo with a Shotgun" trailer [Canada only?], (2) Robert Rodriguez's "Machete" trailer, (3) Robert Rodriguez's "Planet Terror", (4) Rob Zombie's "Werewolf Women of the SS" trailer, (5) Edgar Wright's "Don't" trailer, (6) Eli Roth's "Thanksgiving" trailer, and (7) Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof".



    Contrary to popular rumor, the missing reels idea in "Death Proof" and "Planet Terror" were not true staples of Grindhouse moviegoing. While many Grindhouse films would be missing frames, they were never missing entire 20-30-minute reels. The concept for this came from a film Quentin owns ("The Sell Out" starring Oliver Reed) which had a missing reel. He found he enjoyed watching the film with a chunk of the film's plot missing because it created an interesting mystery about what actually happened in that part of the film. This idea was then transferred to the two Grindhouse features. It also helped cut down the runtime for the movie's theatrical run.



    There was some controversy in the distribution overseas for Grindhouse. Because most non-English speaking territories might not understand the tradition behind a double feature, the underlying concept might be lost. There were decisions being made as to which countries will get Grindhouse, and which will get "Grindhouse: Planet Terror" and "Grindhouse: Death Proof" After the Boxoffice flop in the North America, Weinstein decided to split up the movie in all other countries, including earlier announced double feature countries like the UK and Australia.



    Although some people have criticized, sometimes harshly, the look of the film because of its manual "aging" process, it is actually a good thing. First of all, they helped in the rating procedure of the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA). There had been a concern about the nudity and violence during one of the deaths in Roth's segment "Thanksgiving". Before the final submission to the MPAA, "age" spots were strategically placed on the area of frame where it showed the nudity and violence, where it suddenly became implied instead of being visual. Secondly, it keeps with the presentation as Tarantino and Rodriguez intended the film to look like, as if you got a well worn print of a film that had been making the distribution rounds for a good while and decided to show it one day.
