DVD Synopsis

In Death Proof -- director Tarantino's take on such peddle-to-the-metal shockers as White Line Fever -- Kurt Russell stars as an engine-revving psychopath who prefers to take out his beautiful victims at 200 mph. Originally released into theaters on a double bill with Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror under the Grindhouse banner, Death Proof finds a group of ladies out on the town pitted against a mysterious figured named Stuntman Mike (Russell), whose vintage automobile has been partially modified to withstand even the most extreme auto collision. Though the maniacal driver himself always comes out relatively unscathed, the same certainly can't be said for the poor young lass in his passenger seat -- or anyone unfortunate enough to be on the road when the urge to kill strikes for that matter. With a list of potential road-kill candidates that includes Rose McGowan, Jordan Ladd, Rosario Dawson, and Vanessa Ferlito, Death Proof takes viewers on an adrenaline-infused drive that's as sexy as it is shocking. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Somewhat boring at first, but the last hour is killer!

I loved every second of this brilliant ode to exploitation cinema, complete with film scratches!

"Death Proof" is Tarantino's latest masterpiece, giving us his take on the slasher film, combined with the exploitation chick-power flicks. A tad more serious than it's billed predecessor, "Planet Terror," "Death Proof" surrounds Stuntman Mike (a very different and terrific Kurt Russell), who stalks, encounters and violently kills random young women with his muscle car. However, the table turns when Mike sets his evil eyes on the wrong girls who viciously retaliate. Very dialogue-heavy, but it's Tarantino dialogue-heavy and it works.
