Quentin Tarantino

I am going to see Inglourious Basterds tonight at midnight, one of my fantastic job perks. Now, I like Quentin Tarantino quite a bit. Reservoir Dogs was pretty damn cool, not too over the top for his style, but still trademark-edly gory. Everybody of course knows Pulp Fiction, containing one of the most memorable and badass scenes ever to be put into a movie. And then of course there's Kill Bill. Crazy to the point of being silly, but still decent. This one is probably the bloodiest on the list.

Another one of my favorites is the seemingly underrated Grindhouse, in two parts, Planet Terror and Death Proof. Tarantino directed Death Proof, but next to the ludicrous zombie brutality of Planet Terror, Death Proof actually comes across as relatively mild. Planet Terror just goes so incredibly over the top that you wonder how the hell there's someone bloodier than Tarantino these days. But anyhow, Grindhouse is a great movie, and if you haven't seen it, go find it somewhere. It has Bruce Willis in it.

So bottom line is, Inglourious Basterds is gonna be f***ing epic. Like seriously. Brad Pitt killing Nazi's? It's Quentin Tarantino, Goremaster, directing A WAR MOVIE. How can it not be the most ridiculous thing ever? If you haven't seen the trailer, hit this thing here and let the amazement begin. I'll be sure to write up some time this weekend about how much blood he uses.
