A term used to describe a movie that sacrifices the traditional film-making concepts such as good acting, character development, production values, creative directing and an understandable plot outline in favor for sex, gore, nudity, violence and other shocking themes.
The term originates from the word used to describe theatres that were known to screen such movies.
The term has now been repopularized through Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez movie using that particular name.

A new movie from the brilliant minds of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino. It's a double-feature containing Rodriguez's "Planet Terror" Tarantino's "Death Proof." Will definately be worth the money. Coming April 6 07
Grindhouse will be the best movie this year.

One kickass movie with 2 separate movies; Planet Terror (directed by Robert Rodriguez) and Death Proof (directed by Quentin Tarantino).
There is nothin' more gangsta than a white girl with a machine gun as her right leg.

Movie that has caused debate over whether it was a good movie, two bad movies with funny fake previews, or just a horrible waste of money.
"hey dude did you go see "Grindhouse" it was sweet"
"no it wasn't it sucked to the moon and back"
"no it didn't"
"ya, it did"
and so on
