American Grindhouse - 2010 - 6/10
Careening documentary of grindhouse cinema covers miles of territory at breakneck speed.
From the Silent era’s Traffic In Souls, through sleaze, exploitation, Blaxploitation, spoofs, until current times.
Always the same ethos, get asses into theater seats! And what works for Klaw will be gobbled by MGM.
I could not keep up. There must have been 200 films, although many were simply lobby cards or posters.
Titles raced by, and I’m going, “Hey! I never heard of Wolf Woman from 1916. I gotta find this winner!”
Quite a few talking heads, all seem utterly delighted to have been invited to gab away.
Absolute must-see for fans for trash, bad cinema, Grade Z shambles.
