Trivia:
Skip Reissig, who plays strip-club owner Skip, isn't an actor but is actually director Robert Rodriguez real-estate agent. Rodriguez thought he'd be perfect for the part of the brusque, no-nonsense, tough-talking strip-club owner because, as Rodriguez says, "that's the way he really is".
more
Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: As ‘Planet Terror’ is an homage to the old, low budget Grindhouse films of the 70's and 80's, there are many deliberate errors by the filmmaker to give an authentic Grindhouse feel.

For me this is the best Comedy/Horror since Peter Jackson's Braindead, just pushing Shaun of the Dead into third place. It's unashamedly silly and over the top from start to finish, with a good cast, funny lines, gore and action.
If you're going to have a ludicrous premise, why not go the whole way? Movies like 'Snakes on a plane' and '28 Weeks Later' would have been much better had their directors/writers understood this.
I found this hilarious and excellent entertainment. Particularly recommended to fans of splatter-comedy-horror. And if you liked this, make sure you see Braindead.
9/10
