Grind out a new date

Those foaming at the mouth for Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’s double-feature GRIND HOUSE (which apparently has switched back to using the original title) will have to wait a little while longer.

According to distributors the Weinstein Co., the film’s release date has been bumped back a few months from September 22nd to December 1st, which just makes for fun holiday horror. It’s wierd how the previous film that Tarantino was involved with (that would be Eli Roth’s HOSTEL) had its own release date confusion before it was released. I wonder if we’ll be bombarded with promo stuff for GRIND HOUSE like we were for HOSTEL? All things come to those who wait, it seems.

Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez each will direct a 75-minute horror tale including fake movie trailers in between both movies. Rodriguez’s part, “Project Terror,” will be a zombie pic, while Tarantino’s section, “Death Proof,” will be a slasher segment. Alicia Rachel Marek, John Jarrett and Danny Trejo are (so far) set to star.
