Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell) has a death-proof car. He likes to stalk pretty girls to ultimately kill them by causing a car crash, which he only he can survive, thanks to his tricked-out stunt ride. But then he meets a trio of stuntgirls who turn the tables on him.

Death Proof was supposed to be part of the Grindhouse double feature, together with Robert Rodriguez' Planet Terror, and a couple of faux trailers by various guest directors. Because it tanked at the US box office, extended versions of both movies are released independently (I wonder what happened to the trailers, though).

Since the first day of the month is cheap (well, cheaper) movie day, and I was already there, and Grindhouse would have been a double feature, I stayed on for Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker's latest offering. No big surprises here, Jackie Chan must be getting too old for the more crazy stunts and Chris Tucker gained a few pounds. I liked the French taxi driver.
