Grindhouse: Difference between revisions

* [[Gorn]]

* [[Hammer Horror]]: Possibly ''Don't'', although it appears to be more violent than Hammer usually went.

** Not to MENTION the fact that, while [[Lost|Frank Lapidis]] may fly a plane really well, it's nothing, and I mean nothing...to his barbecue.

** Sheriff Hague is played by Michael Biehn, who played Kyle Reese in ''[[The Terminator]]'' and Corporal Hicks in ''[[Aliens]]''

* [[Rule 34]]: Yes, there is fanmade ''Werewolf Women of the SS'' material.

* [[Running Gag]]: Several, most notably the missing reels.

** ''Death Proof'' makes a lot of references that have already been made in other Tarantino films. Kim's car has the same pattern as the Bride's jumpsuit in ''[[Kill Bill]] 1'', but before that, it was Bruce Lee's jumpsuit. Abernathy's ringtone is the "Twisted Nerve" whistle used in ''[[Kill Bill]]'', but Bernard Hermann original wrote it for something else. The only honest-to-God self-reference is when Mike mentions Big Kahuna burgers, a running gag in Tarantino's films.

*** Also, there are Red Apple cigarettes in ''Planet Terror''.

* [[Body Horror]]: By the buckets.

* [[Bond One-Liner]]

** Muldoon says he delivered one to [[Osama Bin Laden]], along with a shot to the chest. Back in 2007, it was kinda funny; in 2011, it's ''really'' funny because that's how bin Laden really died.

* [[Bury Your Gays]]: Tammi is Dakota's lesbian lover on the sly, and ends up getting eaten by zombies.

* [[For Science!]]: Abby.

{{quote| ''"Science comes first but business comes a close fucking seconds."''}}

* [[Gatling Good]]

* [[Groin Attack]]: Abby seems fond of them. The rapists testicles actually melt off.

* [[Homage]]: The action may be all Robert Rodriguez but the horror suspense elements, down to the synthesizer music, is pure [[John Carpenter]].

* [[Noodle Incident]] - The "missing reel". Cut to the diner on fire. Sheriff Hague had been shot. Dakota and her father, the babysitters, the go-go dancing club owner and some of the dancers somehow made it there.

* [[Pint-Sized Powerhouse]]: El Wray is just about the shortest person in the whole movie. And yet, many an ass is kicked.

* [[Reckless Gun Usage]]: Dr. Dakota Block gives a gun to her child, when she leaves him alone in a car. {{spoiler|He shoots himself in the face ([[I Just Shot Marvin in The Face|accidentally]] or [[Driven to Suicide|not]]) within a few seconds of her leaving the car.}}

* [[Rocket Jump]]: Cherry does this with her grenade launcher leg. One of the only non-videogame characters to perform this move.
