Right, I think that is the vibe he is shooting for, a combo of spaghetti/exploitation type thing. I think he really likes that kind of thing, which is fine, I like some of it too.
It’s just that folks today can’t handle it for some reason. Half the articles I have seen are black folks yelling at him for having too many n-words and making a mockery of slavery, the other half have been stories about it inciting black on white crime. If it was put out in ‘75, it would have been a footnote pobably.

Tarantino is a big fan of the Blackspolitation flick. I’ll sure “Mandingo” was one of his favorites - that was a blackspliotation film on a Southern plantation.
If it were put out as a 'blaxploitaion' flick in the 70s, only blacks would have gone to see it and no serious critic would have reviewed it. Now this kind of mindless crap is Oscar material and receives rave reviews as a 'great film'.
