In a bizarro twist, the cops that are overtly sinister and dickish are played by black men. Seems like an almost self-aware flip on Lee's part to have the put-upon, white drug dealer being threatened by ruthless black cops.

The order should have been reversed, with the Death Proof slow-boiler, then the trailers, then the Planet Terror viscera/laugh fest.

I'm so excited…for my mom.

V100?

Jenny Lewis in The Wizard. Imagine my surprise when, after listing to Rabbit Fur Coat for the 8,000th time, I finally realized she was THAT Jenny Lewis. The crush continues…
