Kill Bill: What Made Bill Such a Terrifying VillainWarning: This video contains spoilers for an 18-year-old movie. In the Quentin Tarantino movies Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Kill Bill: Volume 2, the villain known as Bill is set up as a master assassin who has unlimited skill and cruelty. But while the audience is clearly told that, we don't actually see Bill (played by David Carradine) until the second movie. In the first film, we see only his hands as they carry out increasingly evil deeds. When his face is revealed in Volume 2, he comes across as nothing that we expect. Yet the audience knows what he has done, and that makes his appearance even more chilling because he could be anyone we encounter on the street. As they did with Hans Landa, Nergstalgic takes a deep dive into the deliberate filmmaking steps Tarantino took to make Bill a person who very much needed to be killed. -via Digg#QuentinTarantino #Bill #KillBill #DavidCarradine

Hans Landa: A Supremely Terrifying VillainThe 2009 Quentin Tarantino film Inglourious Basterds gave us bloodthirsty Nazi hunters, but we were okay with them because they were on the right side.The real bad guy was the Nazi Hans Landa, played by Christoph Waltz, who won an Oscar for his performance. But it was more than Waltz' amazing acting that made the role memorable. Nerdstalgic breaks down his performance to explain the tricks used to make Colonel Hans Landa thoroughly charming while instilling fear and dread in everyone he encountered. And the audience, too.
