Starring Kurt Russell, Samuel L. Jackson, and Jennifer Jason Leigh, The Hateful Eight follows the adventure of a bounty hunter and his prisoner in the midst of nefarious characters.
Quentin Tarantino has offered up his hellish mind to the world, and TH8 is one of his most thrilling, cynical, subversive and narratively transgressive exercises to date.
The Hateful Eight is too extreme, too ghoulishly violent, too besieged by its ensemble's overriding villainy, to feel like anything but a dark chamber piece.
The movie isn't one of Tarantino's fantasties correcting historical atrocities, it's about American history *as* an atrocity. The declaration of an angry political consciousness from an artist I never imagined having one.
