In The 'Grindhouse' Teaser Trailer, Amputees Find Empowerment In Grenade-Launching Prosthetics
Yesterday, the new teaser trailer for Grindhouse, the upcoming Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez double-feature in which the directors finally allow their deeply buried fetishes for exploitation cinema to creep into their work, debuted on Yahoo (and then, naturally, was released into the wild of the YouTubes.) . At the risk of sounding like fanboys, we're a little geeked up for this one: Playing a psycho who uses a muscle car to run down chicks seems like the perfect way for Kurt Russell to work out whatever demons led him to take a thankless roll propping up Dakota Fanning in that horse movie, Rose McGowan with a machine-gun prosthesis is something stolen directly from our most troubling erotic nightmares, and, perhaps most crucially, it looks like some shit blows up. (We are men of simple pleasures.) As always, enjoy.
