The Tarantino Theory

Out of all the theories and connections out there, the Tarantino theory has to be my favorite. The theory goes to prove that all Tarantino films share the same universe and are happening on the same time line.

                RESERVOIR DOGS CONNECTION TO NATURAL BORN KILLERS
    Tarantino first broke into the scene with 1992’s Reservoir Dogs, a film about a jewelry heist gone way wrong. The team of colorful criminals hired to pull of this job all go by code names, with audiences never really knowing most of their true identities. But we do learn the name of one of them: everyone’s favorite ear-slicing, milkshake sipping psychopath Mr. Blonde aka Vic Vega https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TqRHjYl955s brother to Pulp Fiction‘s Vincent Vega. When we first meet Vic, he has just gotten out of prison and has been assigned a parole officer Seymour Scagnetti, who Vic has no love for. Well as it so happens, Scagnetti has a brother too. Dect. Jack Scagnetti. Who is the Detective in charge of tracking down a pair of star-crossed cereal killers in the movie Natural Born Killers

                TRUE ROMANCE’S CONNECTION TO INGLORIOUS BASTARDS  
    In Reservoir Dogs we also find out that Mr. White had been mentoring a call girl named Alabama, who had gotten very close to a man named Clarence.                            https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5-CyWvTY-A Before they can have their happy ending, they need to kill Alabama’s pimp. Doing this leads them to grabbing a huge bag of cocaine, which they sell to a famous movie director Lee Donowitz https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l5jup1zI7Cg Now if that lat name hasn't already rung a bell, let me refresh your memory. Before Lee Donowitz was producing movie, his dad Sgt. Donny Donowitz, a WWII badass who was smashing heads with a baseball bat in Inglorious Bastards. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3uqv0eP7Tg

Review for Dexter

     Mild mannered Dexter is a blood spatter expert for the Miami Police dept. with a secret. Under the nice exterior is a cold blooded killer who can't be stopped. Ever since Dexter was a child he had a need to kill. As a child, he mostly killed dogs, cats and other small animals. This continued until his foster father, Harry Morgan (Played by James Remar) who was also a police officer, started to find the bodies. Knowing that he will never be able to change Dexter, he decides to teach him a code of ethics to channel his need to kill. The first rule of this code is to never get caught and do whatever necessary to stay a free man. The second rule is never kill an innocent. Only people who deserve to die, people who have escaped justice and are walking free among the public. The code is never fully revealed, but it is referenced throughout the show.
                     
As the seasons progress, the line between his personal life, and his life as a killer slowly start to cross. Forcing Dexter to find his way out of every problem to avoid getting caught. Giving you a thrill ride of heart stopping scenes, twists, turns and pulse pounding action.
 Dexter Season 8 Episode 1: 'A Beautiful Day'

 With plenty of gore and action, this show is definitely not for the faint of heart. Yet with it's amazing story line, great performances, and bits of comedy, Dexter is definitely not a show that you want to miss. The show brings many of its characters into detail, not just following Dexter. This works great, and allows you to get more in depth and closer to other characters. All in all I completely recommend this show to any TV buff who hasnt seen it already.
