I was over at the Tarantino wiki, looking at the list of films shown at all the QT Fests, so I thought it might spark a good discussion to ask how many films from all of the Fests people have seen. Based on the listings there, it looks like I’ve seen 38 of them, though I might have missed something. Actually, I could have sworn that THE OUTSIDE MAN was a QT Fest film, which would bring it up to 39, but I could be mistaken.
I treat the QT Fest programs as a list of must-see films, and I have many more to go. To me, exposing these films to larger audiences is perhaps Quentin’s greatest contribution to film culture. I hope he keeps doing it forever,… and I hope to actually attend one someday, maybe QT7…

Which Fest was it shown in?
It was QT 5.
Thanks - I just updated my OP. I was kind of skimming, so I wouldn’t be surprised if there was something else I missed.

Pretty impressive list there Winslow, it appears that you have definitely explored many of the same b-movie byways as QT over the years. Here’s a question though, have you watched every one of those you own? If not, what’s on your immediate “must watch” list?
Watched Dixie Dynamite & Slaughter Hotel (Cold/beast) over the weekend.
Dixie pretty much had me bored (Loved Warren Oates though) and Slaughter Hotel was another one of those so-bad-that-it’s-good. Gimme the DVD!
I agree about Dixie Dynamite - a real snoozefest despite the best efforts of Warren Oates. Could have used a lot more nudity and violence.
Haven’t seen Slaughter Hotel, I’ll check it out.
