Grind House - double feature from Tarantino/Rodriguez

With 2007 comes new movies whether they are remakes, sequels, recycled ideas or originals.
My prediction is that Grind House is going to be a big hit.

Grind House is a two full length feature horror movies by Quentin Tarantino (Kill Bill, Reservoir Dogs) & Robert Rodriguez (Sin City, From Dusk till Dawn). They are paying homage to exploitation B-movie slashers from the 70s & 80s. They've hired some B-actors too.

Death Proof is about a psycho stuntman who stalks & kills beautiful women.
Starring: Kurt Russell, Rosario Dawson, Eli Roth & Sydney Tamiia Poitier

Trivia - Tarantino tried to cast Kal Penn (Harold & Kumar) & Sylvester Stallone in Death Proof
Planet Terror is about a small town where people start getting infected & a gun-legged woman & her martial arts-wielding partner take on the zombie army
Starring: Rose McGowan, Freddy Rodriguez, Naveen Andrews (Lost), Fergie, Marley Shelton
Its a crazy concept with crazy plot lines, but these two guys have a huge following so I'm betting on this flick being a hit. (Kurt is probably hoping this will kick start a comeback ie- what Pulp Fiction did for Travolta). I'm loving the retro movie posters & watching out for the fake movie trailers.

Think this will be a hit - Agree or diagree?

I'm a Tarantino fan,,,so I'm at least interested and think that they should be pretty good.

Scary movies give me the heebie geebies. I prefer not to watch scary movies b/c they turn me on.
