THE DL: Two victims from terrible childhoods find each other, fall in love and go on a killing spree across America just for kicks while becoming glorified by the mass media.
RESIDENT BAMF: It just has to be Mallory Knox. What’s more badass than a chick who can kick the shit out of some guys, pop a squat in the middle of the desert and rock a mullet?
WHAT A QT! (CLASSIC QUENTIN MOMENT): Let’s just say the whole plot! There’s lots of controversy that surrounds this film and how QT it truly is. QT sold the script after struggling to get it made and Oliver Stone took over making changes that many QT fans did not agree with.
PLAY THAT FUNKY MUSIC: There are some big names on the soundtrack like Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Nine Inch Nails, Patti Smith and Dr. Dre, but “Shit List” from all-girl grunge band, L7 really sets the tone.
NOTABLE QUOTABLE:
Once upon a time, a woman was picking up firewood. She came upon a poisonous snake frozen in the snow. She took the snake home and nursed it back to health. One day the snake bit her on the cheek. As she lay dying, she asked the snake, “Why have you done this to me?” And the snake answered, “Look, bitch, you knew I was a snake.”
