Reasons Why Quentin Tarantino is Better than a Vampire
Updated : May 05, 2014 03:57 PM IST
A man who is the gunslinger of Hollywood, big daddy of nonlinear storytelling cinema would turn 51 on this 27th March and the best way to celebrate the legend's birthday is hitting his surreal work of moving images with frames changing so fast, it looks like so many Djangos have been unchained to wreak an entertaining havoc.
Although you never should need a reason to watch his work and admire the beauty of his scripts and the angles he would go for to direct the scenes (Oh sorry, we got carried away), but let's just call it a separate religion, if not a reason.
He is so loud! We say it's because of the volume (Yes! You got it. It's Kill Bill).
Volume I
Chapter 1 - Pulp Fiction
A very pulpy fiction. More pulpier than Minute Made's Pulpy Orange (Not so gourmet). When he can create a script out of the word 'f**k' that was used 265 times in the entire movie, he makes sure that he is loud. Very loud!
Chapter 2 - Death Proof
Got a troubled married life? Forget shares and stocks and invest in a death proof car. Then you certainly know what to do. Surely after it's done, the woods would look lovely and you will end up having a pimped 1969 Dodge Charger.
Chapter 3 - Reservoir Dogs
No scope of gun-control here. He would direct such a scene like a nuclear test gone wrong. A film that was filmed in 35 days, and these men were killed in 0.35 seconds.
Chapter 4 - Inglorious Basterds
Nazi-hunting season is on. If we ever have to participate in World War III, and we have an enemy like 3rd Reich, this will be our inspiration. We all will be very famous, inglorious thugs of the III World War.
Chapter 5 - Natural Born Killers
Damon or demon, only QT can kill them both. Tarantino is a natural born killer and a brutal slayer who is any day better than any lowlife vampire out there. Trent Reznor had to watch this movie 50 times to mix and record his track. The mood!
Chapter 6 - Kill Bill
Yellow-yellow, killer fellow. We all know what happens when Black Mamba drives an SUV or a yellow bike. When she rides a yellow bike, we get to see a lot of red. When US$60,000 of the movie's budget was used for producing swords, who needs fake vampire fangs?
Volume 2
Chapter 1 - Desperado
Enjoy the comedy. That's one way to p**s off some bartenders. Muchas gracias!
Chapter 2 - Django Unchained
Even when he dies, he makes sure it's a death that would blow up your cojones.
Chapter 3 - Planet Terror
You don't find many people describing a gun that way.
Chapter 4 - Sukiyaki Western Django
That's why we all love you QT. You can beat some thugs and beat some eggs too.
We even have this, to tell you that it's always damn good. It's QT aye!
With so much gore and style in his movies, he is a director with camera in one hand and a gun in the other. Who needs a real vampire who has a straight-faced girlfriend?
