![]() And believe me, I’m not prejudiced because of his post- FDTD oeuvre. Giggles tagline, “The Doctor is INsane! The Doctor is OUT…of his mind!” It’s not Clooney’s tics or delivery that I don’t buy. He hates the whole South American cannibal subgenre I love Ferox, Holocaust, and Apocalypse,) but this time it’s the Doctor with whom I vehemently disagree. And while it’s entirely possible that QT lifted it from somewhere else, I love the exchange between Clooney and the big bearded Titty Twister patron, where the guy says, “One…” and Clooney rejoins it with “Two!” as in, let’s get on with it, tough guy!ĪR: Usually it’s Jon I find myself at loggerheads with (he loves …Manchester Morgue I find it painfully slow. But I love the way he sinks his teeth into Tarantino’s chewy dialogue. For years, that was my George Clooney impression, tilting my head to the side and waggling it a little.

Jon Kitley: As much as I dislike George Clooney, I thought he was pretty good, even though he couldn’t seem to get his lines out without tilting his head down or to the side.Īdam Rockoff: I don’t hate Clooney – he’s fine in romantic comedies and as earnest everymans – but I found him dreadful in FDTD. ![]() ![]() He is clearly supposed to be the “bad” guy, but at the end of the film the audience is supposed to accept him as the “good” guy. George Clooney was the star, and Rodriguez thought so since he gives him the most screen time and frames him in several “hero” shots. You figure out which is which.īrian Kirst: I gotta say I truly enjoyed the cast, but since it’s all pretty much stunt casting in my mind (John Saxon, Michael Parks, Quentin Tarantino – Tom Savini, Fred Williamson, even Harvey Keitel and Juliette Lewis to a certain degree), I never truly examined the performances much past the surface before.ĭave Kosanke: I thought on paper the cast looked good. In the other, a rapist has his eyelids pulled back by fishhooks while crows peck out his eyeballs. In one of them, a single father is heartbroken because he may be forced to uproot his family and move to another city. Special Guest Star: Adam Rockoff – In the past year, Adam Rockoff has written the remake of I Spit on Your Grave (under his pseudonym, Stuart Morse), as well as the Hallmark Channel made-for-TV-movie, Dad’s Home.

This is our first one that was posted some time ago, but I am bringing them over from the old site to here.
