Death and the Maidens

Directors Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, with their inspired yet twisted mix of gritty glamour complete with guns, gore, and plenty of sex, have collaborated on the double feature "Grindhouse"—a moniker for the run-down movie palaces that screened B exploitation films in America throughout the 70s. Sticking to the true nature of the genre, Tarantino and Rodriguez have packed the cast full of women who look gorgeous even when they're covered with blood and zombie guts. In this exclusive footage from their photo shoot for the May issue, Rose McGowan, Rosario Dawson, Marley Shelton, and the rest of the Grindhouse Girls strut their ample stuff for photographer Patrick Demarchelier.
