Grindhouse combines Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror, a horror comedy about a group of survivors who battle zombie-like creatures, and Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof, an action thriller about a murderous stuntman who kills young women with modified vehicles. It is presented as a double feature with fictitious exploitation trailers preceding each segment.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The theatrical release flopped so hard they split the films for home release—destroying the entire artistic point.
Death Proof's car chase was shot entirely practically with Zoë Bell, a real stuntwoman playing herself, on the hood at 100mph.
