Death Proof (2007) First Time Watching! Full Movie Reaction!!

Comments

PIG

I was fine with how slow it was and the dialog. I am way in the minority here because this is QT's only flop. Also, there was no CGI. All the stunts were real and body parts were prosthetics. I geek out on this movie so much. I absolutely love it.

Top 5 Tarantino film for me, really fun on repeated viewings. When i first got to Austin I had to go to that bar

Scott Kerr

I love car chase scenes! some of my favorites: Bullitt (1968) Vanishing Point (1971) The French Connection (1971) The Seven-Ups (1973) The Blues Brothers (1980) Short Time (1990) Ronin (1998)

One theory I've heard floated about the movie is that the first half of the movie isn't even real, but actually what Stuntman Mike is picturing when he is plotting his kills, and then the second half is what actually happens when he tries it. Not sure if I totally buy it, but there is the drastic stylistic and tonal switch between the two halves of the movie, and it's fun to think about anyway. A more convincing read is that Stuntman Mike, even if he was a stuntman, is ultimately a big poser. The movie is a tribute to the insane bravery and skill of Zoe Bell, who is the real deal, and that's why she can totally kick his ass. The action movies cited in the film are generally American movies, and of course Zoe Bell is from New Zealand, not Australia, but this movie is also in the tradition of a wave of action/exploitation movies out of Australia in the 1970s that was given the nickname Ozploitation. In particular, there are two movies featuring real-life stuntman Grant Page (who worked on the Mad Max movies, among others) playing himself: Stunt Rock and Deathcheaters. Stunt Rock in particular is a really fun, goofy little movie where Page hangs out in LA with a reporter and an actress while doing a bunch of stunts, intercut with a concert by a rock/magician act known as Sorcery. I'm sure if you put it up it would be the least-successful video imaginable because I imagine less than 50 of your subscribers have seen it, but it is a ton of fun. I also recommend the great Ozploitation horror-thriller Roadgames, which features Jamie Lee Curtis in an on-the-road Alfred Hitchcock homage (a friend of mine dubbed it Rear Windshield, which is a great joke and very fitting).

Also, haha, not important, but it's Win-stead as in "winning," not as in "wine."

Ronin is the movie that got me into chase scenes.

The older cop/ranger is also a character in Robert Rodriguez' "From Dusk Till Dawn" which is a pretty crazy movie as well.. and his son (Number 1) is really the actors son..

If you have a chance seek out the ‘Coming Attractions’ that were made for this film. “Don’t” and “Thanksgiving” were really funny.

The end credits song is by one of my favorite artists, April March. An English cover of the 60s France Gall French pop tune, "Laisse tomber les filles". They do play AM's own French version after the English version tho. Perfect end credits song for this movie, that's for sure.

Oh woah, I like that theory! Stuntman Mike is the worst, and Zoe is the best! So cool to see them both in this. I feel like just from the sound of those movies, they would be stressing me out because of the stunts haha -Sam

We'll definitely be watching "From Dusk Til Dawn" once we've completed the Tarantino directed films we haven't seen -Sam

Well, if it helps, Grant Page is still alive! And they're not nearly as wild as the "ship's mast" chase in this, although a couple are pretty crazy.

Bullit would be great, need a Steve McQueen reaction on here especially before Once Upon A Time In Hollywood

Jonathon Dragovan

Stunt Man Mike is heavily inspired by Burt Reynolds characters particularly the Bandit in Smokey and the Bandit. Stunt Man Mike is essentially an evil version of the Bandit. That movie is a classic and I hope you two watch it!

Steven Montano

Great reaction! In case it hasn't already been mentioned, the Sheriff (who you noted was also in Kill Bill) makes one more appearance in From Dusk Till Dawn, in which he engages in a quite entertaining conversation with a liquor store owner in a scene that firmly establishes the film's tone. =D

Alex

Would Love to see the other part of this double feature on here.. I forget what it's called right now. The other one with Rose McGowan.

Beau Mont

I feel that this should only be watched as Tarantino intended, as Grindhouse. This is only half the movie.
