Planet Terror
Humanity's last hope… rests on a high power machine gun!
Directed by Robert Rodriguez
Produced by Dimension Films, Troublemaker Studios
A gleefully grotesque grindhouse zombie action film that pairs graphic body horror and relentless violence with campy irreverence and retro exploitation aesthetics.
Two doctors find their graveyard shift inundated with townspeople ravaged by sores. Among the wounded is Cherry Darling, a dancer whose leg was ripped from her body. As the invalids quickly become enraged aggressors, Cherry and her ex-boyfriend El Wray lead a team of accidental warriors into the night.
