The other week, Quentin Tarantino’s combined “Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair” was officially set to have its first-ever nationwide theatrical release on December 5th. Now, a trailer for the re-release is out.
The film was originally conceived and filmed as a single feature, but was split into two instalments during the editing process to accommodate its epic runtime. The two parts were ultimately released six months apart and grossed more than $330 million worldwide between them.
The 271-minute ‘The Whole Bloody Affair’ removes both the cliffhanger ending from the first film and the recap from the second, and adds a 15-minute intermission. The event brings the pair together as a single cohesive storyline.
This release will also include a never-before-seen 7 1/2-minute animated sequence and will include 70mm and 35mm presentations with plans to play in all major markets.
Uma Thurman stars as The Bride, a woman left for dead after her former boss and lover Bill ambushes her wedding rehearsal, shooting her in the head and stealing her unborn child. To exact her vengeance, she first must hunt down the four remaining members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad before confronting Bill himself.
Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, Gordon Liu, Michael Parks, and David Carradine co-star.
