Quentin Tarantino’s (2015) is a slow-burning, blood-soaked chamber piece that feels like a cross between a classic Agatha Christie "locked-room" mystery and a nihilistic spaghetti western . Clocking in at 167 minutes (general release), it is an endurance test of dialogue-heavy tension and sudden, explosive violence. Plot Summary
Set in post-Civil War Wyoming, the story follows bounty hunter (Kurt Russell) as he transports fugitive Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh) to Red Rock to be hanged. A blizzard forces them to seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery , where they are joined by six other suspicious strangers—including a former Union soldier (Samuel L. Jackson) and a self-proclaimed sheriff (Walton Goggins). As the storm traps them inside, enmities from the war resurface, leading to a deadly game of betrayal and deception.
