LA Grindhouse Festival: March 4-May 1

March 4 to May 1, auteur Quentin Tarantino will present the "Los Angeles Grindhouse Festival 2007", an eight-week retrospective screening 60 exploitation films including "Super Manchu", "Wonder Women" and "The Legend of the Wolf Woman."

Many of the classic, indie features were shot in and around the Los Angeles area.


Screenings will take place at LA's New Beverly Cinema, showcasing prints owned by Tarantino.

It is not known whether Tarantino will go for the 'total' grind house cinema experience including sticky floors and piss on the washroom toilet seats, although the "Kill Bill" director reportedly spent months scouring Los Angeles for the proper theatrical 'ambience' to screen his personal collection to the public.
