A Wild Ride Indeed: Action Flick Chick Theme Song

Posted on October 29, 2009 by Action Flick Chick

…st from the credits of Death Proof, the latter half of Quentin Tarantino’s Grindhouse double feature. “Sweet theme song style song,” Amanda said, “with a retro grindhouse genre feel to it.” I wonder if the 1964 French song it’s based on (“Laisse tomber les filles” sung by France Gall) is now in the public domain.

Posted on November 12, 2009 by Action Flick Chick

…rt “Spy Kids” Rodriguez, Planet Terror came out in theaters as part of the Grindhouse double-feature. It was paired with Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, which I will be talking about a little later down the road. Planet Terror gets really gory, so make sure to strap on your big boy/girl pants.
