Tarantino's out to kill!

Quentin Tarantino is back with another violent drama, Kill Bill - The First Volume.

According to Guardian Unlimited, this Uma Thurman-David Carradine-Lucy Liu starrer 'could be one of the most brutal films ever shown in cinemas.'

The use of excessive violence and strong language in films is new for the 40-year-old. Witness his self-styled action flicks Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown.

The plot of Kill Bill revolves around a woman who is assaulted on the day of her wedding by her husband (Bill). She wakes up after years in coma with only one goal in mind: to kill Bill.

The character has been revived once again for director Kevin Smith's Fletcher Won. Smith, who has made films like Dogma and Chasing Amy is planning to rope in either Brad Pitt or Ben Affleck for the coveted part, mentions a snippet on ananova.com.

The new episode on Fletcher covers his early days as a reporter up to his first case.

Celebrities in Hollywood have to deal with constant invasion of their privacy.
