Quentin Tarantino just announced at the San Diego Comic-Con that Kurt Russell will play the slasher in his part of Grind House. Russell will play Stuntman Mike in "Death Proof." It was the first time Tarantino had been allowed to talk about the casting. He also confirmed that Rosario Dawson and Mary Elizabeth Winstead are in the film.

The other half of the movie, "Planet Terror," was directed by Robert Rodriguez. Grind House, which also features faux trailers and ads will run between the two pics as an intermission, opens on April 6

I just bought and watched the blu-ray collectors edition, and although I loved the revisit to this I really feel that Quentin's Death Proof took away from the experience I was getting and expecting from it.
It just felt out of tune with Planet Terror and all of the trailers. It was good as a standalone feature, especially when considering how it turned the slasher genre on its head, making heroes of the victims instead of the killer and appreciating women much more than the usual slasher film.

Anyone own the UK version of this on blu-ray? Is it the shortened versions of the movies and can you watch them seperately as well as all together?

thanks
