Looking at the lineup of films coming to cinemas in recent times can be a depressing activity. I can't remember the last time I was genuinely excited about a film and that worries me considering that films are one of my favourite things I reckon, well I don't reckon, I know!
There's been a few exceptions here and there:
Pan's Labyrinth
Casino Royale
Babel
Well the next little glimmer of hope comes in the form of a double feature directed by filmakers Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. Its called Grindhouse, and its a film nerds wet dream. It harks back to the days of the drive in exploitation films of old where you would get two films for the price of one. Tarantino directs serial killer story Death Proof whilst Rodriguez' entry is a zombie film titled Planet Terror. Both will be very gruesome, very camp and extremely cool and for me August, 2007 can't come soon enough. Do yourself a world of good and see it when it comes out..don't download it!

Hey Ben,
I agree a bit about the movie linkup being second rate, but like you then said there are some good movies coming out but I think they tend to get less atention the the rest of the hollywood crap. I'll be there for the Tarantino/Rodriguez double!
