Every Friday and Saturday night at 11:55pm, it's another Midnight Movie Classic at the Landmark River Oaks Theatre.

Friday-Saturday, January 2-3: Grindhouse.

In the 1960s and '70s, grindhouses were theaters that played back-to-back movies exploiting sex, violence and other extreme subject matter.

In their loving tribute to the heyday of exploitation films, directors Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez deliver a double feature of exciting thrillers:

Tarantino's Death Proof stars Kurt Russell as a scarred, diabolical killer who stalks foxy women from behind the wheel of his muscle car;

Rodriguez's Planet Terror stars Rose McGowan as a go-go dancer whose leg was ripped from her body during a roadside attack—and replaced with a machine gun which she uses to kill zombies!
