SHOWNOTES: Welcome back, Collateral Cinema listeners! Today, we celebrate 320 all-time downloads on Podbean by reviewing and analyzing our first Quentin Tarantino flick, his 2007 love letter to the horror/slasher & carsploitation genres of film, Death Proof, and as awesome as it is, it's still considered Tarantino's worst flick ever, even by the man himself. Host Robert Ortegon chose this movie, and host Beau Maddox joins him as they discuss the amazing camerawork and stunt driving, delve into the character development and dynamics between both groups of women, explain the technical aspects of the vehicles used in the movie, tackle Tarantino's idiosyncratic writing style, and try to determine where everything went wrong with the critical/audience reception to the film. Join our discussion in the comments section!
