Summary: Just plain awful
Comment: Planet Terror is not a parody of the mindless B (actually F) zombie movies of the past. It is a real, mindless F zombie movie - and nothing else.
The old movies at least had the originality of creating a genre.

Summary: Grind house? More like Shxt House!
Comment: Warning: Anyone that tries to claim that grindhouse has artistic merit because of its grainy and dated look will be replied to with the sound of a bleating sheep. Baaa!
In this piece of garbage our protagonist, "Cherry"(yeah, that's really her name) is a stripper. A lustful liberal that displays her body for cash. Yeah, great role model for young women. I should also mention here and now that the amount of profanity, cursing, and disgusting rhetoric reaches historic levels. Do you want to know how many times the F bomb is dropped in this film? 169 times! I'd make a joke concerning the significance of that number, but I'll withhold it in good taste.
Warning: Anyone that tries to justify the outrageous amount of profanity in this film will be replied to with the sound of a bleating sheep. Baaa!
With liberals shooting up their local malls and schools almost daily, can you honestly justify watching a film this violent? This movie is so violent it makes Grand Theft Auto look like Bambi. There are more blood and guts in this film than can be found in a Cuban hospital. This film is so gory that it even made Herschell Gordon Lewis throw up. Wanna see a little kid blow his mind out in a car? Wanna see a woman break both her wrists?
Warning: Anyone that tries to justify Grindhouse's extreme and unnecessary graphic violence will be replied to with the sound of a bleating sheep. Baaa!
Is it necessary for a film that will be shown in theatres and on National television where any children could see it to contain this much nudity and sexual content? A man rips off other men's balls and throws them in a bag. Quentin Tarantino acts out one of his fantasies by attempting to rape a disabled woman who just lost a leg. He evens tells his friend it means `easier access.' They really go too far though when they allude to a past lesbian relationship involving the character 'Dakota.'Sick.
Warning: Anyone that tries to justify the disgusting and demeaning sexual content in this film will be replied to with the sound of a bleating sheep. Baaa! BAAAAA!

Summary: Near the mark
Comment: The film commences with "Our forthcoming presentation" an excellent fake trailer for "Machete". However if you check the IMDB you will find that Machete is a film in production! In the trailor for Machete the whole plot seems to be given away - now doesn't that sounds familiar. So what about Planet Terror? Well having recently watched Death Proof I really wasn't expecting much, but this is much nearer the mark than Tarantino's effort.
A zombie movie, with classy B movie actors who supply the type of performance you would expect from a major production that pays homage to many movies from the 1970's and 1980's. So long as you've got a reasonably strong stomach and you don't mind the slightly 1970's misogynist edge to the whole thing its really entertaining.
I was never a fan of Rodriguez until I saw Sin City, and this is almost as good as that. It only lets itself down in one area, that is the fake early 1970's era scratchy film quality which is over-played hugely. Its a one-joke technique played for 1 hour 40 min. Overall though great fun.
