Shameless plug

"Grindhouse," the Rodriguez/Tarantino double feature, double brilliance, is fantastically geeky, kitschy, sexy, gory, and oh my god, at one point in "Planet Terror", the Rodriguez feature, when Rose McGowan was gushing pus and blood!, Freddy Rodrigruez was sexily oozing blood!, Marley Shelton was gushing blood!, Sayeed (Naveen Andrews) from Lost! was gushing blood, I too had unwittingly clawed open the scab on my hand where it started bleeding profusely along with the movie, as intense as it was. Other points of note were: Tarantino's penis oozing off, the fake-previews directed by Rodr/ino that referenced other cinemas (such as: Kill Bill in the 'Machete' preview; or Halloween/Silent Night, Deadly Night in the 'Thanksgiving' preview), and the many American pop cultural references-- they're winking deviously at us! From muscle cars! Where beautiful, not so anorexic women are hanging their soon-to-be-severed long legs! And the obvious build-up to the disaster is making you palpitate with stress!



I am going to geekily ponder the symbolism behind the collection of freshly cut testicles in "Planet Terror," and the mindblowing dialogue in "Death Proof," as does define all Tarantino films.

Or. Work on writing my review/critique on my Theology professor's book in a less sarcastic manner. And not think about severed balls.
