... a scruffy, over-the-top zombie action film... filled with action, horror, gore, tough guys, sexy chicks, and of course ocular trauma.

Director Robert Rodriguez (SIN CITY) pays homage to his favorite B-movies with PLANET TERROR, an old-fashioned zombie film that's infused with enough gore and giggles to please even Peter Jackson (BAD TASTE). Rose McGowan (CHARMED) plays Cherry, a go-go dancer whose night is interrupted by a vicious zombie attack that leaves her missing a leg. Her ex-boyfriend, Wray (Freddy Rodriguez, SIX FEET UNDER), takes charge, fashioning her a new leg from a machine gun and killing zombies along the way. PLANET TERROR plays as a pleasing ode to the horror and exploitation films that once played in grimy grindhouses across the country. Rodriguez splashes plenty of blood, guts, and gore across the screen, while also taking the plot into some wonderfully bizarre territory. PLANET TERROR was originally released as part of the GRINDHOUSE double feature with Quentin Tarantino's DEATH PROOF. [More]

Reviews for Planet Terror
A gruesome homage to every awful zombie flick ever made and a guaranteed treat for fans of that trashy genre from a bygone era.
A fun zombie film bursting at the seams with gross special effects and deliciously over-the-top moments . . .
