“A double feature that’ll tear you in two!”…Grindhouse as you may know already (If you don’t, then what the hell are you waiting for to find out) consists of two movies: Planet Terror and Death Proof. Planet Terror is directed by none other than El Mariachi Robert Rodriguez, while Death Proof is directed by Quentin Tarantino. Both of these guys have been friends since they made it big on the screen. They collaborated on From Dusk Till Dawn all the way back in ’96, Tarantino wrote and starred in the movie, while Robert directed it. Fast forward to 2005 with the release of Sin City, Robert gave a scene for Q.T. to direct; thus, they have worked officially two times. Both of these directors are alike somewhat in style and that they use same actors for their movies (Ex: Antonio Banderas, Cheech Marin, Carla Gugino on Robert’s side and Tim Roth, Uma Thurman and Samuel Jackson on Q.T. side). Grindhouse is like their dream movie, made by fans for the fans, and it shows. The ultimate homage film.

LOBBY CARD

Some sets have a title card, which contains credits and artwork, essentially a mini-poster. The remaining seven cards are coloured photographic credits and poster artwork showing different scenes from the movie.
WINDOW CARD

HALF SHEET
22 x 28″ printed on heavy stock paper. The image displayed is normally a smaller version of the main poster, although some do have different artworks and sometimes come in two versions.

Since the 1980’s most posters are sent to the theatre rolled and maybe slightly smaller measuring 27″ by 40″ and with the advent of backlit light boxes a growing number of modern movie posters are available double-sided and the more traditional single-sided.
THREE-SHEET
41 x 81″ printed on paper. These were printed on two or three separate sheets designed to overlap, few survive. Used for larger advertising spaces, normally posted on walls, perfect for huge movie theatres the drive-in, where people could see them from a distance. From the 1970’s on, three-sheets were sometimes printed in one piece and issued as “international” versions to be used abroad.
