[url=http://screencrush.com/tarantino-gangster-horror/]Source[/url] [quote]Quentin Tarantino has promised (threatened?) on more than one occasion to end his directing career after 10 films, and with The Hateful Eight appropriately serving as his eighth, that means we may only have two more Tarantino movies in our future. The director has had a few projects kicking around in his head — notably a third Kill Bill installment and the Inglorious Basterds-adjacent Killer Crow — and while nothing has been officially set as his follow-up to The Hateful Eight, he does have a couple of possibilities. Or not — you never know with this guy, you know? Tarantino’s films have incorporated many genres and settings, from crime to western to World War II and the Civil War, but there are a couple of genres he hasn’t tried his hand at just yet, and though he may never get around to it, he tells Time Out about the kinds of movies he’d love to make if he had the time: [quote][I]There is not a genre left where I have that same burning desire I had to do a World War II–movie or a martial-arts movie. I think maybe the one genre left might be a 1930s-gangster movie, that kind of John Dillinger thing. I’m interested in doing something contemporary, where I can have a character who gets in a car and turns on the radio, so I can have a cool driving montage. And if I had all the time in the world, I would love to make a really, really scary horror film, like The Exorcist. But I don’t know if me taking my sense of humor and putting it in the backseat just to hit a tone of dread from beginning to end is the best use of my talents or my time.[/I]"[/quote] As Tarantino goes on to note, The Hateful Eight is the closest he’s come to a horror film, as it blends elements of the western films he loves with John Carpenter’s The Thing, even borrowing that film’s composer (Ennio Morricone) and star (Kurt Russell). But as Tarantino himself admits, he may not be the best director for a straight horror film; the last time he tried his hand at the genre, we got Robert Rodriguez’s From Dusk Till Dawn, co-starring and written by Tarantino, resulting in a film far more humorous than terrifying. The director has flirted with many projects over the last couple of decades, including a Vega brothers spinoff inspired by Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill Vol. 3, a Harvey Weinstein documentary, the previously mentioned 1930s-set gangster film and Killer Crow — the latter of which was meant to be created from an entire subplot scrapped from Inglourious Basterds.[/quote]
As long as he can work the word "nigger" all over the script somehow.
Son of Django
[QUOTE=AtomicWaffle;49472318]As long as he can work the word "nigger" all over the script somehow.[/QUOTE] There's nothing wrong with his incorporation of "nigger" in Django and Hateful Eight. It fits the time periods. Plus, I'm pretty sure if there was something wrong with it, Samuel L. Jackson of all people would've voiced his disapproval.
I'd watch the fuck out of a tarantino horror film
[QUOTE=CrumbleShake;49472411]I'd watch the fuck out of a tarantino horror film[/QUOTE] Just imagine a Tarantino take on horror movie about a murderer, something serious like Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer but with his own spin on the genre. I'd kill to see it.
-sNip-
Still praying for a Tarantino/Del Toro crossover
[QUOTE=Robman8908;49472351]It fits the time periods. [/QUOTE] Same for Pulp Fiction? [sp]Dead nigger storage[/sp] :v:

Jackson of all people would've voiced his disapproval.[/QUOTE] It fits the period, but Tarantino uses it much more often than most films/books/whatever in that setting do. Besides, he throws it in whatever films he can (like almost forty times in Jackie Brown despite it being used only once in the book it's based on.)
Tarantino is black on the inside he can use it as much as he wants.

[QUOTE=CrumbleShake;49472411]I'd watch the fuck out of a tarantino horror film[/QUOTE] Dusk till Dawn was pretty good mind you i never expected them to be all fucking possessed [editline]8th January 2016[/editline] i didnt watch the trailer before watching the film btw
[QUOTE=Buck.;49483318]Tarantino is black on the inside he can use it as much as he wants.[/QUOTE] Anyone can use it because it's just a word, that's the point he's trying to drive home.
[QUOTE=Satansick;49483444]Anyone can use it because it's just a word, that's the point he's trying to drive home.[/QUOTE] Even Samuel mentioned in that interview for django. iirc he told the interviewer to say it, the interviewer starting getting all anxious and cringe, to which samual just started blurtting it out and then said something like the more you say it the less meaning it has.
Cunt is becoming more fashionable as a word in movies too.
[QUOTE=karlosfandango;49483655]Cunt is becoming more fashionable as a word in movies too.[/QUOTE] you can thank us later
As long as it's Tarantino, count me in. I wonder if he's capable of doing anything with sci-fi? [QUOTE=AtomicWaffle;49472318]As long as he can work the word "nigger" all over the script somehow.[/QUOTE] Way to sound real ignorant about the set and setting of the films it is predominately used in. [editline]8th January 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;49481437]Same for Pulp Fiction? [sp]Dead nigger storage[/sp] :v:[/QUOTE] It was said by a black actor. I don't understand why people get so bent out of shape over the word when it's used in context. People toss it around nowadays like it's nothing.

[QUOTE=simkas;49487186]Uhhhh you're remembering that pretty wrong, it was first said by Tarantino himself in the film.[/QUOTE] Sure, when they bring whatshisnuts to Bonnie's house. To reiterate, Jackson says it 69 times. I don't understand why anyone would care about Tarantino saying it a couple times anyway.
[QUOTE=Aetna;49487209]Sure, when they bring whatshisnuts to Bonnie's house. To reiterate, Jackson says it 69 times. I don't understand why anyone would care about Tarantino saying it a couple times anyway.[/QUOTE] Pretty much. It's a little silly but nothing to get upset about.

I think a Future Dystopia type movie made by Q.T. would be cool
[QUOTE=AtomicWaffle;49472318]As long as he can work the word "nigger" all over the script somehow.[/QUOTE] "Hey, remember those darkies don't like to be called that no more" -terrentino's actual writing Hateful 8 is fucking amazing and its a western which...like they're a dead genera right now, he doesn't fall into the trap of assuming he needs to explain everything to the audience but he is still able to convey everything he needs through writing, like even though he briefly mentions each character's back story in hateful8 he doesn't dwell too much on them, he lets the characters expand that story by their own actions
[QUOTE=CrumbleShake;49472411]I'd watch the fuck out of a tarantino horror film[/QUOTE] I'd be skeptical. He said it himself: [QUOTE]But I don’t know if me taking my sense of humor and putting it in the backseat just to hit a tone of dread from beginning to end is the best use of my talents or my time.[/QUOTE] I'd even go a bit further and say that a Tarantino horror film wouldn't work too well, and is a waste of his talents. I'd like to see something with the tone of Pulp Fiction. Not the vignette style, but the feeling of it was just so good.

You can do humor and horror very well in the same film. He already has the gore down and horror doesn't mean it has to be a slasher or with ghosts or anything like that. Sure it would work pretty well if all the horror was based around how the characters see the world rather than the world itself being the the horror. Which you could even do a backwards timeline like pulp fiction where it starts off with the comedic horror world then goes backwards to the point of what started whatever it is that drove it to that end. Think like Alan Wake where it's not scary yet still is horror, or you could have a twin peaks sorta deal where it all feels off. There a lot of ways he could take his style and adapt it to horror, it just wouldn't be a traditional horror movie, which would be a good thing as most of them are horrible.
