Famously, Quentin Tarantino has vowed to stop making films in his late fifties or early sixties so as to avoid making, "old man movies". Currently Quentin is forty-nine and with an average of three years elapsing between films, the end is pretty fucking nigh. In an effort to tackle as many genres as possible before retirement, every Tarantino film consists of at least two genres. Never was this more apparent than in Death Proof which is literally a collision (pun intended) of the slasher genre and the car-chase film. That's right, Quentin made a double-feature as his contribution to a double-feature. Clever girl!
