Planet Terror
The film revolves around a series of frightening, frozen events that are now exploding. Events begin in Texas, where the gang led by black market dealer Abe faces a group of rebel armies led by Captain Moldon at an abandoned military base. During an exchange of fire, Abby shoots the recipient of a biological weapon, launching a highly infectious experimental gas that turns humans into zombies eating meat. But a group of people who have not been infected save the world.

Geysers of blood, insinuating camera angles and an extremely playful editing style add to the mayhem, keeping us gasping in horror and laughing at the gleeful excesses on screen.

Won't make any friends outside of B-movie aficionados, and even they might tire of laughing at all the cheapo gore being thrown around.

Planet Terror makes bad movies look good, and that's absolutely a compliment.

Too ugly conceptually to be any fun.

Dire and dunderheaded.

A dull-witted homage to 1970s schlock Grindhouse horror films.

Exciting, sexy, gory - in a good way - and frequently laugh-out-loud funny, Rodriguez's zombie exploitation flick is the most fun you'll have in the cinema all year.

Some people call this a guilty pleasure %u2013 a silly expression that has been adopted by serious minded critics who apologise for liking overtly commercial movies

Packed with hot women, a ninja-like character and zombies, it's the kind of movie a 15-year-old would make with a limitless budget and little concern for ratings. Good thing he knows how to make an incredibly fun movie.

Aficionados will appreciate the po-faced wordplay and self-consciously gnarled-up aesthetic (missing reels, bad syncing, etc) as much as the fleshy centrepieces and gross-out grace notes. Others will struggle to find much appeal.

A first-rate homage to the schlocky, sleazy B-movies of decades past.
