Cast Announced For “Grindhouse”
It was recently announced that Kurt Russel, among others, has been cast in the kitschy double-feature “Grindhouse” being developed by Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez.

If you haven’t heard, Grindhouse will be two short movies in one: Tarantino’s Deathproof, the story of a stuntman who uses his modified car to kill young women; and Rodriguez’s Planet Terror, a zombie film.

Both are tributes to 70’s no-class, low-budget, high-gore and low-concept exploitation movies: grindhouse cinema, to be precise.

The two segments will be separated by a series of fake trailers for 70’s type films. Tarantino has stated that they will make a fake kung fu movie trailer, a fake blaxploitation trailer, and a fake “sexploitation” trailer for a nonexistent movie called Cowgirls in Sweden.
