Confirmation from the local Sam Goody: Planet Terror and Death Proof are being released separately. They're actually being released two days apart at my store on the 16th for Planet Terror and the 18th for Death Proof.

So it's good news if you're one of the folks that only liked Planet Terror.

I'm sure they will eventually, but right now I suspect they are going for profitability as the theatrical release more or less tanked. Also, I think there was a lot of demand to split the two films up.

I for one, don't want to be within 100 yard of Death Proof ever again.

death proof would have been much better had they chopped the entire first half hour off of it. I was ready to leave the theater about 10 minutes into Death Proof.

The problem was that it wasn't as cheesy as Planet Terror. It was a serious movie. It wasn't Grindhouse at all. But I liked it for what it was, a kick ass car chase film. Having Kurt Russel cry towards the end was such a boneheaded move, though. I thought Stuntman Mike was supposed to be a total badass.

I thought both movies were excellent. Did you notice Simon Pegg and Edgar Wright (of Shaun of the Dead fame) as zombies? I think Simon was in the phone booth.

Death Proof was good because Tarantino had a chance to make fun of himself. The believeable dialogue, the spinning-around-the-table-a-la-Reservoir-Dogs, violence juxtaposed with humor very quickly, all of his trademarks. Also, if I ever own a store, I will have a Johnny Cash picture with "Cash Only" written on it.

Death Proof wasn't that bad, it's just that (like a lot of grindhouse flicks) it too way too long to get to the point and paid off at the end with one heck of a car chase. Plus the whole movie stank of being sliced and diced: the beginning title sequence was badly edited on and possibly the first half of the movie was new footage inserted to make the whole 'Death Proof' title accurate. If anything, the real movie itself is 'Thunder Bolt' in which Stuntman Mike terrorizes three stuntwomen in a car. The DJ girls and the bar sequence was nothing but a joke to be slapped onto the beginning of the movie ala Dr. Butcher M.D.

So in a sense, the movie works, but it wasn't well thought out. Rodriegez made his movie fun. Tarantino made a Grindhouse movie without really thinking how it would play to everybody not in on the joke. And the Weinsteins forgot that the whole movie as it ran in theaters is what everybody wanted on the DVD, and that separating them takes the joke way out of context and makes it completely pointless.

That said, if I came across either steelbook of both movies for really cheap, I'd get them. But my heart is still in a mega DVD release of this fine film that was one of the best cinematic experiences I've ever had but wasn't given enough credit.
