Death Proof
Synopsis
Tarantino is back, and has Kurt Russell in the driver's seat in this ice-cool tribute to 70's cult thrillers. Russell plays Stuntman Mike, a scarred rebel who makes a habit of stalking foxy ladies from behind the wheel of his high revving muscle machine. For Austin's hottest DJ, smooth talking 'Jungle Julia ' (Poitier) and her friends, a dusk encounter with Stuntman Mike turns bad. Real bad. But not everything's going to go Mike's way. Strap yourself in for one hell of a funky, crazy, exhilarating ride.

Strong violence, coarse language and sexual references
"QT 's B-movie homage to cars and girls deploys its cheap thrills with laid-back craft and class. Russell's wicked fun, Bell's a true trooper."
Total Film
"Seriously entertaining American filmmaking and definitely not the half-serious pastiche it could easily have been. No seatbelt, no airbag, no nuthin'— just Tarantino driving wildly under the influence."
