This release used to have the complete Grindhouse experience (fake trailers, etc). If you buy this version the packaging is the old packaging that says Grindhouse on disc 1 and bonus features on disc 2, but when you open it up you get a disc of Death Proof and a disc of Planet Terror, both extended editions. No Grindhouse cut.
You may have received a bootleg or illegitimate copy of some sort. I bought this a few months ago, and it was the correct version listed with a disc for the films and a second disc for the bonus features. If Amazon sends out the incorrect version, you should return it for a legitimate copy.

It's legit. Lionsgate has started printing these. If you look at the comments on Amazon and look at the thread on blu-ray.com it's the same for a lot of people. It's a manufacturing error with this batch.

I see the photo on Bestbuy now. Still a good deal, but not the one expected.

It's just 2 short films that were combined to act like 1 whole movie, not really a "double feature". They have always been packaged together. Imo: Planet terror is great, death proof sucked.
What do you mean short films?

This combo version does not have lossless audio. Individual releases are extended + Dolby TrueHD.

Not sure on this release, but Grindhouse was meant as a full experience of 2 movies and 2 sets of trailers (at the beginning and during intermission) just like we used to enjoy QT Fest at the original Alamo Drafthouse on Colorado, before the Ritz.

The movie flopped in theaters since you can't make a 3 hour movie nowadays, much less 3.5 hours. They had their original cuts, then put them together shaving frames where they could to get it to ANY thing close to 3 hours. After their failed box office returns they released them individually for a while before the Grindhouse cut was released on Blu-ray.

I feel the editing is tighter in Grindhouse and shots last a bit too long on their individual releases. I've seen Grindhouse like 8 times in theaters (with different groups of friends) and the individual cuts once.

Not my type of movies, but I like Kurt Russell. Good deal for both movies. In for one. Thanks OP.

This might be up my alley as I already have the original Grid house and wanted the extended cuts. For $8 it's too much to pass up.

I can confirm that the Grindhouse Blu-ray I ordered from Amazon about 1 month ago is not the theatrical version, even though the Amazon description and back cover art both say it's the theatrical version. It's the extended edition of Planet Terror (disc 1 only) and extended edition of Death Proof.

The theatrical Blu-ray has the additional trailers intact and a lot more special features, which is what I wanted. I will return and try again. Maybe it's a mixed pile of old and new cases in the Amazon bin.

I received my order from Amazon yesterday. It is the extended versions with a single disc for each film, which is what I wanted at this point. I bought the theatrical double feature from Target a few months ago.
