Grindhouse is a deliberate evocation of grotty late night movies at the most questionable and sticky of back-alley theatres in the 1980s. The kind of places you go if you wish to purchase a human kidney. Robert and his frequent colaborator Quentin Tarantino remember these dives fondly and wanted to bring us that feeling with an audacious double-bill of two authentic-feeling movies, Planet Terror and Death Proof, accompanied by trailers for films that did not exist (at least at the time, three of them were made for real afterwards).
How did this bold experiment go for them? Here you can find out from a variety of angles, including a journey back to one of the first podcast episodes I ever recorded, as well as the direct response to the first time Sharon and I ever got to see the double-bill as intended and finally a culmination discussion regarding a very decisive re-edit of both films by me.
Here is a turning point in the career of Robert Rodriguez, and here is where our Director Season will close out (though we are continuing with discussions on Alita: Battle Angel, Machete and Spy Kids 4 on the patreon After School Club bonus podcast feed for everyone who throws in five bucks or more a month).
