A decent overview of the evolution of the Grindhouse picture, from the earliest days of Edison to the pre-code flicks, drive-in teen far, nudie cuties and... The Passion of the Christ? While it doesn't dig too deep, the interviews are a lot of fun and it gives budding Grindhouse enthusiasts a good place to start.
