Viewing Notes

Before I tell you what I think of The Hateful Eight (Roadshow), let me start this off by giving you some background on my feelings on Quentin Tarantino’s creative output. I loved Reservoir Dogs. In fact, I may have been mildly obsessed with it as a teenager. (a friend once bet me that i couldn’t go a whole day without quoting it. I didn’t take that bet) I thought Pulp Fiction was decent and the kitsch was fun. Jackie Brown is great. Every part of Death Proof not set in a car bored me. Kill Bill is rad. Django Unchained was just ok but had some great performances. And Inglorious Basterds was fun but forgettable. (those are the 7 features leading up to The Hateful Eight in the order that I thought of them) So, I’m by no means a “hater”.  (foreshadowing) Why am I reviewing The Hateful Eight? It’s certainly not horror, but it is very violent. Besides, I watched Bone Tomahawk the night before I saw this and they’re both westerns starring Kurt Russell. So I figured, ‘why the hell not?’ You’re welcome.
