Calling all UK film fans, particularly those of director's Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. SHAUN OF THE DEAD and HOT FUZZ helmer Edgar Wright has managed to organise a special one-off screening of GRINDHOUSE - in it's double heading fantastic-ness at the Prince Charles Cinemas just off Leicester Square in London on Saturday March 8th. The screening will also feature those faux trailers in between PLANET TERROR and DEATH PROOF, one of which was directed by Wright. Wright will be there on the night to introduce the event. Here's the official word.

Edgar Wright introduces Grindhouse: A double-bill of thrillers that recall Robert Rodriguez & Quentin Tarantino's favorite exploitation films. "Grindhouse" is presented as one full-length feature comprised of two individual films helmed separately by each director. "Death Proof," is a rip-roaring slasher flick where the killer pursues his victims with a car, while "Planet Terror" shows us a view of the world in the midst of a zombie outbreak. The films are joined together by clever faux trailers that recall the '50s exploitation drive-in classics.
