Premieres & Special Screenings

Presented by AMD PLANET TERROR plus DEATH PROOF together in one Smash Explosive Show! with GRINDHOUSE directors Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez, plus special guests [from www.grindhousemovie.net ]Robert Rodriguez, co-director of SIN CITY, brings you PLANET TERROR, a retro-futuristic vision of horror that’s been weathered, stripped and aged to perfection. In PLANET TERROR, married doctors William and Dakota Block (Josh Brolin and Marley Shelton) find their graveyard shift inundated with townspeople ravaged by gangrenous sores and a suspiciously vacant look in their eyes. Among the wounded is Cherry (Rose McGowan), a go-go dancer whose leg was ripped from her body during a roadside attack. In Quentin Tarantino’s DEATH PROOF, dusk offers Austin’s hottest DJ, Jungle Julia (Sydney Tamiia Poitier) an opportunity to unwind with two of her closest friends, Shanna and Arlene (Jordan Ladd and Vanessa Ferlito). This three-fox posse sets out into the night, turning heads from Guero’s to the Texas Chili Parlor. Not all of the attention is innocent: covertly tracking their moves is Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell), a scarred, weathered rebel who leers from behind the wheel of his muscle car. |
