i've watched Deathproof last night. It's heavily cut in local cinema.

this is not like a normal Quentin Tarantino movie, very straight forward.

overall its quite alright

Heavily cut? Even with the M18 rating? That's so disappointing.......

 

Does anyone know whether the other Grindhouse feature directed by Robert Rodriguez, Planet Terror, will be shown in cinemas here?

i had a bad feeling this would happen... i tell you the censors are a bunch of clueless uncles  ::)

 

might as well just watch this on DVD.

that bad hur? if there's heavy cuts they should have rate it at R21, to have less or w/o cuts.

 

think I'll skip, also if Planet Terror will rate same as M18 if they decide to screen.

 

shall wait for dvd then.

Will the fake trailers be included in them as well?

I managed to catch the double bill of Hostel 1 & 2 at the Cineleisure Orchard last Saturday. It was quite enjoyable to see both movies back to back, though I have seen Hostel 1 last year.

 

Which leads me to think how great it would be if Cathay or any other cinemas could show Grindhouse in its entirety just like in the US - Death Proof and Planet Terror, plus the fake trailers.

 

Guess it will just remain a dream then.

i stand corrected - the 2nd movie is being shown later part of this month.

 

but not to worry - you can still fulfill your dream on DVD  ;D

From what I know, when individually screened, the version that is shown is actually longer than what was shown in the US as a double-billed version. I think Death Proof is actually 30 mins longer than the Death Proof shown in the US as the double-bill version. But I heard the movie got butchered in the cinemas here...that's another story. The DVD will be one of the most anticipated releases of this year...at least for me!

Hence the 'Extended and Unrated' DVD of Death Proof as you previously mentioned, I see.

 

Okay, DVD it is.

GV at Plaza Sin is having a back-to-back marathon on 21st Sep.

 

Both rated at R21 not M18.  ;D

 

Yeah. Now I thinking if I should go, or just get the DVD which is coming out pretty soon.

marathon ! really,  deathproof itself is already  quite a long movie, if u cannot tolerate gal talk, abt 1/2 (maybe more) of deathproof, u will wish u were dead  ;D

 

so think very carefully  :P

Posted

really ? that's a surprise  :o

 

deathproof was not well received when it was shown. which will be showing first , deathproof or planet terror

 

if deathproof, I am guessing some will leave before Planet terror...

 

and miss the more enticing act 2 ;D

Watched the marathon last night and was very entertained, especially with Planet Terror. The humour was a total crack up, typical of B-movies of the past. Fergie from Black Eyed Peas was in the cast too, but too bad she did not have much screentime.

 

Only one fake trailer was shown, Machete before the start of Planet Terror. Two Robert Rodriguez regulars, Danny Trejo and Cheech Marin as a Mexican out of revenge and his sidekick priest. Funny to the max!

 

I also learnt what all the fuss was about the girl talk in Death Proof. Really really long-winded and made me feel like I was eavesdropping on the girls. Kurt Russell was hilarious when he whined after being such a tough guy throughout the movie.

 

Overall, thumbs up!
