Quentin Quarantino is a monthly comedy podcast about 2 things: movies, and me having seen none of them. I (David Lever) don't really watch movies, and now we're under lockdown my friends (Finn Mason, Fraser McMahon and Jack Kenyon) want to end that. Socially distanced, we'll be watching all of the big Quentin Tarantino's self directed movies chronologically, forcing me to absorb some semblance of culture (their words). Each episode we discuss the movie unscripted, giving our thoughts and opinions, as well as saying whatever awful, weird and occasionally funny things pop into our heads. And when we don't have time to record a full on Tarantino episode, we have plenty of minisode formats to keep you entertained. From quizzes to discussions to a weird poem I did once. If you like Quentin Tarantino movies, weird movies, want to hear 4 idiots banter about movies or all three, this is the podcast for you! Theme is 'Retro' by Wayne Jones. Spoiler warning for Quentin Tarantino movies and content warning: Explicit language and content, including reference to violence and sex.
We discuss Quentin Tarantino's self-written whacky wampire wideo, From Dusk Til Dawn. Feat. Biker illuminati, terrible people doing terrible things, table impalement, hot cross guns, estate agent prejudice, and Doctor Michael Morbius. Plus, is this a vampire movie?! Content warning: Explicit language and content, as well as significant references to sexual assault and violence. This episode contains spoilers for From Dusk til Dawn.
