The sixth part of George A. Romero’s Dead saga is proof that sometimes the dead should stay that way. Movie series’ always have a natural end, after which it becomes foolhardy to resurrect characters, ideas and concepts. That time has come with Survival of the Dead, a weak addition to the zombie series that suffersfrom bad acting, a poor script and a distinct lack of action. The movie is only partially redeemed by a final twist that belongs to a far better movie.

Quentin Tarantino has a problem. And The Rotten Tomatoes Show has to have a Director Intervention to save the man who made Pulp Fiction, Death Proof and Jackie Brown from his own defeat--the feet.

"With Inglourious Basterds about to skull punch multiplexes across the nation this weekend, it's only fitting to take some time to brush up on the ole Quentin Tarantino backlog of films. He's written and directed six of them since 1992, and if you have the time, gumption and guts to do so, than a six-film Tarantino film festival is the way to go.
But for those of you who are not unemployed and currently living in a relative's basement/attic/garage, here is a suggested mini-marathon that will get you primed and ready for QT's spaghetti WWII movie. And feel free to replace your personal favorite Tarantino movie with any from the list below, or add it to the list if you want to spend even more time in front of your television soaking in rapid fire dialog, intense violence and palpable movie love."

As some readers may know, I’m not the world’s most enthusiastic defender of Quentin Tarantino; I discussed my reservations about him a while back with my friend Keith Uhlich, the managing editor of The House Next Door, a Time Out New York film critic and an unabashed Tarantino booster. But because I do admire Tarantino’s idiosyncratic style, and because some of Keith’s arguments made me question my assumptions, I took another look at the director’s work in advance of his latest feature, Inglourious Basterds.
