Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with the line-up for the upcoming QT Film Fest numero 6. You'll see a lot of coverage of this fest on this site in the coming week and a half, so now you have a preview of the forgotten gems that Tarantino is bringing to Austin. I wonder if Tarantino wants to borrow my print of CRITTERS for that '80s horror mystery night?
Blake from CinemaStrikesBack.com has rundown the schedule for ya'. You can also check it out at the AFS website (here!!!). You can also keep an eye on the Alamo Drafthouse's site here! Read on!!!
Greetings everyone, here is a full list of films/themes playing at QT6 according to the Drafthouse's Website. Though I'm sure you might already be aware of the list. Feel free to cut and paste it, hopefully this format will save you some time when you post it on AICN. Hope to see you all there! Can't wait. And for the love of God please someone beg Tarantino to bring back "Blade" for encore night!!!

Thanks a lot, bud. I'll see ya' on Friday! Well, there you have it, squirts. I'm willing to bet I've seen at least a couple of the '80s Horror mystery flicks, but other than that... the only other movie he's playing that I have seen is BMX BANDITS. I've wanted to see BLUE WATER, WHITE DEATH (for obvious reasons... it's the film that got Spielberg to hire Ron and Valerie Taylor to shoot all the live-action Great White shark footage for JAWS) for a long while and now's my chance. I'm also drooling over Jim Brown and Richard Roundtree in CRACK HOUSE, THE SELL-OUT for Oliver Fucking Reed and SHAME OF THE JUNGLE for Belushi and Murray.
In the past Tarantino has programed the fest in order to get a gauge on what works for his next project. I'm not surprised we're seeing a WW2 Epic Night or a Grindhouse night for this very reason. Hope to see a lot of you folks at the fest!
