Storyline

Some time after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. Bounty hunter John Ruth and his fugitive captive Daisy Domergue race towards the town of Red Rock, where Ruth will bring Daisy to justice. Along the road, they encounter Major Marquis Warren (an infamous bounty hunter) and Chris Mannix (a man who claims to be Red Rock's new sheriff). Lost in a blizzard, the bunch seeks refuge at Minnie's Haberdashery. When they arrive they are greeted by unfamiliar faces: Bob, who claims to be taking care of the place while Minnie is gone; Oswaldo Mobray, the hangman of Red Rock; Joe Gage, a cow puncher; and confederate general Sanford Smithers. As the storm overtakes the mountainside, the eight travelers come to learn that they might not make it to Red Rock after all... Written by Jordan Crighton

Goofs

Both blockhouses, the station and the stables have clearly visible interstices between individual logs but in spite of the blizzard outside, snow flakes inside the buildings sink down almost perpendicular from the roof down to the floor. See more »

Crazy Credits

The roadshow version of the film opens with a faux-vintage Weinstein Company logo, in flat white-on-blue with a very 70s font along with a "Cinerama" logo. The first few credits appear in the same font as the logo's before switching to Tarantino's usual Friz Quadrata. The standard release opens with only the normal Weinstein Company logo before going directly into the sweeping Panavision shots. See more »

Horrible Shat
19 January 2016 | by (IOS) – See all my reviews

Worst piece of garbage I have seen in many years. I cannot fathom why anyone would rate this movie higher than 1. Note - I have loved most of Tarantino's work. I believe people like this move because it allows them to vicariously live through these characters. The movie is infused with socially taboo/raw elements: racism, misogyny, torture, anti-social behavior, psychotic behavior etc. Hateful Eight is aptly named...these folks are evil or self-serving at best, with no respect for life. As the story goes, it is a collage of epithets, brute force actions, and stereotyping. Lacking is a coherent message...it is really in the end, shock porn. Avoid at all costs.
