Git Yer Cheep Thrillz On....GRINDHOUSE

GRINDHOUSE on Yahoo! Movies

The trailer for Grindhouse, the Tarantino/Rodriguez back to back tag team movie pairing - Rodriguez does Planet Terror, Tarantino does Death Proof. Total, TOTAL back to the 70s trailer trash heaven.

Insert "Yeehaw!"

: )

Whatchoo wanna bet Rodriguez shot his digitally? UPDATE - he did, Genesis.

This was shot (at least in part) in Austin - they were shooting process car shots about 5 blocks from my house for a few days over the summer. Note the Death Proof poster shows a Burnet Road Drive In in Austin premiere date - hopehopehopehopehope...

I've been looking forward to this one for sometime as I'm a big fan of lurid old movies. But to get on topic, I believe he shot his segment digitally and DP'd Tarantino's segment as well.

That must have been based on an old poster. All that's left of the Burnet Drive-In is the marquee. It's been a self-storage place for about 30 years. Says an old Austin native.

I've never typed in a blog before. Testing, testing, 1.2.3. I just found the grindhouse website. Wicked. Can't wait to see this one. Maybe Alamo Drafthouse will do a Rolling roadshow at the old Burnet Drive-in.
