ooooh.......I don't know about that now. I'm a huge horror fan so I have to throw my two cents in here...........
Tarantino definetely has a unique style of directing..........he tends to tell a story in a non-linear fashion, which is excellent. I like movies you have to piece together a bit. That just doesn't fit with the horror genre. For maximum effect, horror movies should be told in the most linear way possible.........to witness the progression of the film. Alot of horror flicks (mostly Italian) have non-linear aspects but the stories do tend to still flow sequentially.............could you imagine watching a horror movie that is cut up into different segments and placed out of chronological order like Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, or Kill Bill? I just don't think it would be all that good.
I don't think that sequential order is too important to witness the progression of a film. Pulp Fiction was all out of order and progressed amazingly. Pulp Fiction's last scene was the smartest way to end the movie because of the emotions it puts the viewer through. If it had been edited in chronological order we would have seen Bruce Willis and his girlfriend leave on the Chopper as the last scene. That wouldn't have been as affective. One of the most amazing things about Pulp Fiction is how you can like both John Travolta's character as well as Bruce Willis's, yet they are bitter enemies. Most movies have to make you hate the antagonist for them to get killed off by the protagonist. In Pulp, they were both protagonists.
Mine goes to Pulp. Not only is it an awesome story with great acting and presentation, its ****ing hilarious!! Next would be Kill Bill, then Reservoir Dogs. Dogs and Bill are pretty much tied though. I haven't seen Jackie Brown.
I love the part in Dogs though when Joe assigns them their names and Steve Bucemi gets Pink...
PINK
"Hey why am I Mr. Pink?"
JOE
"Because you're a faggot! Alright?"
