22:35 I don't know whether you catch it later or not, but since the white car is also a muscle car, it is also "death proof", so it was a question of who's car goes out first. The tense part was basically Zoe hanging on by an inch, while Mike is trying to make her lose grip and "fly".

[@wandersonoliveira263]

There are two cuts for these movies: The individual extended cut for each one and the Grindhouse cut. The Grindhouse version cuts some parts of Planet Terror and Death Proof so they could be put together without tiring the audience and justifies it with "Missing film roll" in the screen, or something like that, which is pretty funny and adds to the 70's trashy Drive-in/Grindhouse experience, in my opinion. And the Grindhouse includes intermissions and special trailers inbetween the films, directed by friends of Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, like Eli Roth, Rob Zombie and Edgar Wright, and they are fucking hilarious, including one with Nicolas Cage. The Grindhouse cut is 3 hours long, so I highly recommend you watch it some time, like in Halloween.

@@jorylu666 Duel was Spielberg's first feature film, after directing numerous episodes for different tv-series. It was released on television in the US as a 75-minute "Universal Movie Of The Week", and was so extraordinarily received that he (Spielberg) was asked to film a couple of more scenes to make the movie longer, and make it eligible for theatrical release in Europe - where it was highly critically acclaimed. Spielberg's first theatrically released movie in the US was his second one, Sugarland Express. And also, the references to Duel in Death Proof aren't really blatantly in your face, so they're easy to miss. Not saying they're not there though.

"Thanksgiving" which was an homage to holiday slasher films of the 1980's, and was directed by Eli Roth. Then there was "Don't" which was a hat tip to British haunting films of the 50's-80's, and was directed by none other than British director Edgar Wright, whom is known for "Shaun Of The Dead", "Hot Fuzz", "Baby Driver" and more recently "Last Night In Soho".

The way I see it, the movie is cut off before they can deal with it. The editing proves that the movie is called "Thunderball" but has been cut up into "Death Proof" by an unscrupulous exhibitor. The fact that the movie ends really abruptly indicates to me that there was probably a coda that the editor cut off because he wanted the movie to be shorter so they can run an extra showing later in the day. It makes total sense that these badass ladies would drive the rickety car back and pick up their friend (who is likely boring the shit out of Hillbilly Guy by telling long-winded stories he doesn't want to hear), so the way I see it, the movie is cut off before the story is done and that's the point.

Jungle Julia was a radio DJ. You even hear them on the radio in Planet Terror saying RIP to Jungle Julia.

The concept of the Grindhouse double feature hearkens back to the far away days of the Drive-In Theater. I'm not old enough to remember myself but from what I heard from older family it was all about getting together with your friends for a cheap movie where you could go park and be rowdy and watch something violent and raunchy. One of those nostalgia for a time you never got to experience. But this event did come out while I was in college and I did go see it in the theater. It was fun, but people were understandably less rowdy than at an outdoor venue.

I don't know how I forgot about this classic. I was on the edge of my seat when I first saw it, and re-watched it a few years ago, and it's still great.

Oh! Brandon I don't know if someone else mentioned this but the way "Stuntman" Mike knew about "The Poem" was because Julia is a local D.J. in Austin . Julia was talking on the air about her friend Butterfly and the bet was open to anyone in Austin who would come up to Butterfly... hoping to get her friend a good time while she was visiting . Julia did explain to Butterfly about the bet at the bar Butterfly was given that margarita . That's why Mike was talking to Butterfly about being wounded... her feelings were a little hurt that she didn't get the attention she thought she would .

I owned a '71 Nova just like Deathproof - excet mine was white. Mine was also re-built as a track car; it got 6mpg on high-octane fuel!

That Chevy Nova he drives is awesome. Great video

Lucked out and saw this in a lower budget theater (similar in tone to an actual grindhouse from the day) that was absolutely packed. Entire place was cheering by the end of Death Proof.

I was 13 when I snuck into the movie theater to watch the double feature. I finally understood the saying, “keeps you on the edge of your seat” during the last 20-30 min. Such a great car chase!

To answer your question, yes you got one ticket for Grindhouse and saw both movies, the fake trailers before and between each movie. It was a long time in the theater but such a blast!!!

Maaan one of my favorite moves, I'm surprised you didn't cached the parallels between the two groups, like when Stuntman Mike talks about the movies he's been in and then, the second group of girls talk about the same movies because Zoe and Kim are stuntgirls, giving the first hint of how this is gonna play out.
