Kill Bill Vol. 1 & 2
The Six Degrees of Kill Bill, Part VII
This week, we arrive at the blood-soaked finale of our Six Degrees of Kill Bill series.
For the last six episodes, we’ve traced the cinematic lineage behind Quentin Tarantino’s KILL BILL—from spaghetti westerns and samurai classics to manga adaptations and grindhouse revenge tales. Now it’s time to take on the main event.
In this episode, we dive deep into the creation of KILL BILL itself—from its inception on the set of PULP FICTION, to the years-long development of the screenplay, to the ambitious and tumultuous shoot that took Tarantino around the world. We also explore the reasoning behind the decision to split the film into two volumes, the legacy of its bold stylistic choices, and how it became one of the most iconic cult films of the 21st century.
