  • Summary

  • We wrap our series on deadly road movies with an examination of two films that star Kurt Russell — 1997’s road thriller BREAKDOWN, and from 2007, Quentin Tarantino’s unique spin on the slasher genre, DEATH PROOF. Russell plays very different characters in the two films — in BREAKDOWN, a yuppie who finds himself the target of kidnappers, and in DEATH PROOF, a psychopath with a penchant for vehicular homicide.

    We go deep beneath the surface of both films, in search of highbrow takes on these very lowbrow movies, and we come away with some surprising conclusions! The BREAKDOWN discussion begins at (1:26), and the DEATH PROOF discussion begins at (34:28).

    Note, there are spoilers throughout the episode. You’ve been warned!
