Quentin Tarantino is back with another Western film. No, it
is not a sequel to his “Django Unchained” but knowing it is a Quentin Tarantino
film, we can only expect bloody suspense and adventure in The Hateful Eight.
The movie is set six or eight or twelve years after the
Civil War. A stagecoach travels through the wintry Wyoming landscape going to
the town of Red Rock, bringing with it bounty hunter John Ruth and his fugitive
Daisy Domergue. Along the road, they meet Major Marquis Warren, a black bounty
hunter who is once a union soldier, and Chris Mannix who claims to be the town’s
new Sheriff. After having lost in the blizzard, the four seek refuge in Minnie’s
Haberdashery and meet four strangers: Bob, Oswaldo Mobray, Joe Gage and Confederate
General Sanford Smithers. As the storm rages over the mountainside stopover, a
different storm brews on our eight travelers. And they may not make it to Red
Rock after all….
The eight lead roles in the film are played by Samuel L.
Jackson, Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Walton Goggins, Demian Bichir, Tim
Roth, Michael Madsen and Bruce Dern. Channing Tatum also has a part in the
movie. The Hateful Eight is set for
a fall 2015 release by The Weinstein Company.
