Quentin Tarantino

A few months ago we were sent information about a viral video that had surfaced which may or may not have been real. Almost immediately all sorts of odd reports began surfacing. Apparently a YouTube video appeared earlier this year which showed a girl overdosing while her friends stood around and jeered her. Now the word is that before this video surfaced, an extortion plot was hatched to get some scratch out of the people involved in the scene (which resulted in the girl's death). No one would pony up the dough so parts of the 393 minutes of footage began leaking online... enter Quentin Tarantino.

We're not sure just how genre-worthy co-writer/director RZA's upcoming directorial debut The Man With the Iron Fists, an epic-style action adventure flick modeled after classic kung-fu flicks of the 70s, is; but when you've got a co-writer like Eli Roth and Quentin Tarantino presenting the film as the proverbial cherry on top, it's hard to not pay attention to what sounds like a rather intriguing and pretty badass movie.

Okay, stay with me here because this gets strange. According to the rumors we're hearing, a YouTube video appeared earlier this year which showed a girl overdosing while her friends stood around and jeered her (what a great bunch of amigos!) Now the word is that before this video surfaced, an extortion plot was hatched to get some scratch out of the people involved in the scene (which resulted in the girl's death). No one would pony up the dough so parts of the 393 minutes of footage began leaking online... enter Quentin Tarantino.

It's finally happening, folks! Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's celebration of gory B-movies, Grindhouse, will be coming home to Blu-ray high definition this fall, complete and with faux trailers intact, and we've got all of the details for you!

Sooner or later it is going to happen. The great Quentin Tarantino will surely be directing a horror movie. The guy's buddies with Eli Roth and has been in several particularly gory creature related affairs thanks to long-time collaborator Robert Rodriguez. It's almost hard to believe he hasn't made one already.

Two of Hollywood's most famous Basterds are still on each other's side! Eli Roth's big budget opus Endangered Species is one flick we've been really looking forward to since it was announced last spring. Now it appears that Roth is closer than ever to getting back behind the camera to film the movie thanks in part to some great script notes made by Quentin Tarantino.

As Foy reported back in September, Roger Corman was selected to receive an Honorary Oscar by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Sadly, he won't be a big part of the Oscar telecast in March of 2010; instead, the awards ceremony was held this past Saturday at the Governor's Ball.

Obviously we missed the very short theatrical run of Larry Bishop's Hell Ride last month, which is too bad because I bet it looks great on the big screen...

We knew when Larry Bishop’s Hell Ride was first announced that it’d be a healthy slice of badassedness for those of us who are into things like bikes, beer and booty. If you count yourself among those numbers, you need to see this...

We just got a host of clips from the folks behind this year’s Scream TV awards (report here) that showcase some of the highlights of the show. The show will air tomorrow night, October 23rd on Spike TV at 10PM E/7PM P, so don’t miss it! Harrison Ford

Our man on the scene, Sean Clark, got a chance to visit the set of Midnight Meat Train a few days back (lucky sonofabitch) and told us that it kicked a lot of ass. Of course you’re going to have to wait to read more about it as they’re being tight-lipped on the details for now, but at least you have something to look forward to, right?

Grindhouse worshippers were rocked when it was announced that Larry Bishop would be writing and directing a Tarantino-produced hardcore biker epic known as Hell Ride (read about it here if you missed it). Well, prepare for more rocking!

Tarantino brought him back, briefly, for a role in Kill Bill, but now he’s handing Larry Bishop (pictured) a wad of cash to bring a badass-sounding blood-and-sex-soaked tale of revenge to the big screen.

We recently reported on the host and presenters for the fuse/Fangoria Chainsaw Awards (click here if you missed it), and now we have more details for you award show junkies, of which I am proudly a member, about Spike TV's Scream Awards.
