Title: Worth every penny!
Review: I was really lucky to find this at a DVD exchange store, but after watching all of it I would easily shell out a C-note to buy it new. These films are uber-entertaining, particularly for fans of Quentin Tarintino - who stole a lot from these.The violence and sexuality are presented in a context that is never grotesque. Compare Kill Bill Volume 1 to, say, Saw or Hostel. Although Kill Bill is gratuitously violent, especially in the final fight sequences, it is so over the top that it's more funny than thrilling. Saw and Hostel, on the other hand, are far from funny and are affecting because they are so grotesquely horrifying.So if you liked Kill Bill, check these out. On top of being entertaining, they are also a very interesting reflection of the culture of the 60's and 70's which ultimately inspired the themes that are explored.
