How shocking are Quentin Tarantino's films for audiences unfamiliar with him?

Before I even knew who Quentin Tarantino was I was just so agitated and bored with the movies that were around. I was around 15 or 16 when I was hooked on Resident Evil games, I developed such a taste for gore that was never satisfied by any film out there, especially by the first Resident Evil, I still like it but they pussied out on the gore! It was around late 2003 when Kill Bill Vol.I came out on DVD, my brother rented the film, and around that time I wasen’t even into movies. But after I watched it, this piece of brilliance changed my life forever, it sounds stupid but now that I look back it really did. I had never seen a movie with non-linear structure. But the structure was the least of my obsession with Kill Bill Vol.I, which I kid you not watched more than 30 times! My mother hates it though, she thinks it’s way too violent. She’ll never understand.



Man but every scene just blew my fucking mind away, It was the first time in my life that I got hooked up on a movie. Then I watched the Tarantino trailers on the special features, I immidiately rented Pulp Fiction. . .and the rest is history. I’ve been a QT fan for 4 years. QT is my Yoda :’( Sorry that was lame.
