Rolling Thunder Pictures Promotional Clip

This is a promotional clip for Rolling Thunder Pictures from a VHS retailer screener of Switchblade Sisters I found at a flea market recently. It's narrated by Peter Cullen (I think). In 1995, Quentin Tarantino formed Rolling Thunder Pictures, a production company bringing independent, foreign and exploitation films that he felt should be more readily available. The company closed in 1998 when Miramax pulled support due to poor sales. The clip lists four movies to be released, but only two (Switchblade Sisters and Chunking Express) of the four actually got to video stores. There's more at http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_Thunder_Pictures.

Actually, Fist Of Legend did hit video stores, However, it came out under the Jet Li Collection rather than the Rolling Thunder collection.

And The Psychic probably got canceled due to copyright issues. I don't think Miramax or Tarantino ever had the rights to it. Instead, Tarantino released The Beyond into theatres and Anchor Bay got the video rights.

Yes respect to Tarantino ... for supporting the exploitation genre , but RollingThunderPictures & his Grindhouse-movie lost money ... So I guess grinhouse-pictures are gonna get marginal again , the way it should be !!!
