In
Death Proof -- director
Tarantino's take on such peddle-to-the-metal shockers as
White Line Fever --
Kurt Russell stars as an engine-revving psychopath who prefers to take out his beautiful victims at 200 mph. Originally released into theaters on a double bill with
Robert Rodriguez's
Planet Terror under the
Grindhouse banner,
Death Proof finds a group of ladies out on the town pitted against a mysterious figured named
Stuntman Mike (
Russell), whose vintage automobile has been partially modified to withstand even the most extreme auto collision. Though the maniacal driver himself always comes out relatively unscathed, the same certainly can't be said for the poor young lass in his passenger seat -- or anyone unfortunate enough to be on the road when the urge to kill strikes for that matter. With a list of potential road-kill candidates that includes
Rose McGowan,
Jordan Ladd,
Rosario Dawson, and
Vanessa Ferlito,
Death Proof takes viewers on an adrenaline-infused drive that's as sexy as it is shocking.
