This past weekend I caught half of the Grindhouse Double feature "Death Proof." "Death Proof" is Quentin Tarantino's most recently released movie. It is a tribute to all things B Horror movie orientated. So how could a B horror flick have anything to to do with this blog? Well in the movie the three heroines who end up battling a sadistic stunt car driving murderer pay tribute to "Vanishing Point," by test driving a 1970 White Dodge Challenger and discussing some the finer points of the flick. Vanishing Point is ranked #3 as far as hotrod magazine determined on its website here in a survey of the greatest movies ever.
At Memphis Surplus, however, Vanishing Point is currently ranked #1, as it is the only DVD owned by the store. As soon as our in store big screen tv is hooked up it will be most likely be splitting time between the SPEED channel, local area sporting/motorsport events and on those extra slow days one might catch a glimpse of "Vanishing Point", in the background. Don't worry we'll have the remote handy for any of the racy scenes or to watch the racing scenes again.
