...wastes nothing, reportedly plans to make this movie. It stars Rodriguez's cousin Danny Trejo, whose leathery face is already rated R for menacing violence, and Cheech Marin as a priest called to arm himself against the mob. When a man on the receiving end of Marin's gun pleads for mercy, the padre replies, "God has mercy. I don't," and blasts away. (The line paraphrases the title of the first Bud Spencer-Terence Hill spaghetti Western God Forgives...
...Morocco!" Soon, but not soon enough given Tarantino the actor's tendency to slaver, the guy's genitals turn to goo and he gets a stick in the eye - the wooden stalk McGowan's been hobbling on since the amputation. Later the leg is fitted with a machine gun, so she can put her dancing moves to fatal use. Oh, and the jar of severed testicles...

These "dogs of war" are there at the behest of their rich employers, operating without any oversight or rules of engagement.

...Planet Terror, Rodriguez's half of Grindhouse, a go-go dancer (Rose McGowan) loses a leg when zombies chew it off--wait, it gets weirder--and instead of a prosthetic limb has her stump fitted with a machine gun, which she uses to mow down acres of the undead. Death Proof, Tarantino's contribution, presents two trios of high-adrenaline chicks menaced by a psycho stunt driver. The women in both entries love guns and cars and don't mind using them for righteous vengeance and reckless thrills...
