Death Proof (2007)

What the hell was this movie? Kurt Russell, who absolutely kills this role, gets a lap dance then kills 4 girls (with admittedly some cool cutting to show how each one dies in the car). Next up we’re at a convenience store trying to get Italian vogue, then a girl is left with some wack-ass redneck while the other 3 test ride a 1970 Dodge Challenger, almost get killed, then they hunt him down and beat his ass? Jackie Brown has been my lest favorite Tarantino movie so far, but at least that had a cohesive yet confusing plot. This felt disconnected and just… odd. that’s Tarantino I guess.

There was a super cool line: “Hey Pam, remember when I said this car was death proof? Well that wasn’t a lie. This car is 100% death proof. Only to get the benefit of it, honey, you really need to be sitting in my seat.” One of the few highlights of the movie.
