Saw this very cool movie on Mon nite
Synopsis:
Director Robert Rodriguez (SIN CITY) pays homage to his favorite B-movies with PLANET TERROR, an old-fashioned zombie film that’s infused with enough gore and giggles to please even Peter Jackson (BAD TASTE). Rose McGowan (CHARMED) plays Cherry, a go-go dancer whose night is interrupted by a vicious zombie attack that leaves her missing a leg. Her ex-boyfriend, Wray (Freddy Rodriguez, SIX FEET UNDER), takes charge, fashioning her a new leg from a machine gun and killing zombies along the way. PLANET TERROR plays as a pleasing ode to the horror and exploitation films that once played in grimy grindhouses across the country. Rodriguez splashes plenty of blood, guts, and gore across the screen, while also taking the plot into some wonderfully bizarre territory. PLANET TERROR was originally released as part of the GRINDHOUSE double feature with Quentin Tarantino's DEATH PROOF.
Unlike other zombie movies, this one is one cool ride right from the start till the end. The female protagonist, Rose from Charmed, certainly charmed me with her opening pole dance sequence. She simply rocks! Unhappy with her job, she quit to become a stand-up comedian. However, the loss of her leg changed her life forever. The way she manoevre with her artificial leg - a machine gun, was cool and awesome! Lots of cameo appearances, dark humour, gore and a perfect popcorn movie experience!
