Grindhouse is one of my most anticipated films this year. I also love the concept of 2 separate movies in one night at the theater (even though they’re not full length feature films… but that’s ok). But it looks like a number of non-engligh speaking countries aren’t going to get it like that. Instead, they’re going to have to watch the Grindhouse movies as TWO SEPARATE MOVIES released at different times.
Our friends over at Horror-Movies.Ca give us this:
the Tarantino/Rodriquez teamup Grindhouse would be split outside of the US in some non-English speaking nations. The films would be titled Grindhouse: Planet Terror & Grindhouse Death Proof and be put out a few months apart.
the split does allow some footage that was cut from the movies to be put back in, but the problem now resides in deciding which faux trailer goes with what movie. The trailers in the double bill go between the flicks. So far also no news of what will hit first.
This is just stupid, and I’ll tell you exactly what this is about. This is about the studio wanting to double their money in countries they think they can get away with it. Nothing more, nothing less. Why just get 1 admission ticket out of people when we can come up with a way to get 2! And these people wonder why people pirate movies.
