Quentin Tarantino Presents: IMDB – The Movie


The Pitch: Containing the most movie homages ever seen in a mainstream film, IMDB The Movie shifts from comedy riffs, to horror gore, to documentary vérité in the blink of an eye.

Sample Scene: Tarantino walks toward the camera, gesticulating wildly. “Visited by 57 million movie maniacs every month, when you absolutely positively need trivia on every DVD in the room, accept no substitute.”

John Travolta walks in stage left. “I was named Man of the Year by Harvard's Hasty Pudding Club in 1981.”

Sam Jackson walks in stage right: “Get these motherf*cking snakes, off this motherf*cking plane!”

Critical Reaction:
“Essential!”
