THE BACK OF THE BOX
WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

    Director Quentin Tarantino delivers an adrenaline shot to the heart with Death Proof, "a tribute to balls-out pedal-to-the-metal car chases" (Pete Hammond, Maxim). Featuring exhilerating high-speed action, jaw-dropping stunts, and some of the most qoutable lines since Pulp Fiction, Death Proof "goes faster, and funnier, than you thought possible... and then it goes further" (Ty Burr, Boston Globe). Kurt Russell stars as a sociopathic stuntman whose taste for stalking sexy young ladies gets him into big trouble when he tangles with the wrong gang of badass babes. Their confrontation escalates to a hair-raising, 18-minute automotive duel with one of the girls strapped to the hood of a thundering Dodge Challenger that "earns a place of honor among the great movie car chases" (Scott Foundas, LA Weekly).

THE GEEK BOX
TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• Originally the movie was part of a larger film called Grindhouse. The film was supposed to simulate the old Grindhouse films of the seventies that showed cheap horror flicks, often as a double feature. The original Grindhouse film was paired up with the Robert Rodriguez film Planet Terror. In between the film's fake advertisements and trailers were shown directed by the likes of Rob Zombie and Eli Roth.
• Zoe Bell was Uma Thurman's stunt double in Quentin Tarantino's previous Kill Bill films, and he  was so impressed with her that he wrote a main part for her in this film.
• The license plate number on Stuntman Mike's Chevy Nova is JJZ-109 which is the exact same as the license on the Mustang that Steve McQueen drives in Bullitt.
• Kurt Russell's tank top from the film Big Trouble In Little China can be seen nailed to the bar in this movie.
• The original title of this film was Thunderbolt, and one of the film's numerous "mistakes" shows the original title for 1 frame during the opening sequence.
