What's the saying about a cat and nine lives? Apparently, the same logic holds true for Quentin Tarantino's new movie Kill Bill.

It looks as though Tarantino is set to pull another old movie trick out of his hat with the reintroduction of the movie serial. Actor David Carradine, who plays the titular Bill, spills the beans, "Shooting has been going on so long - with Quentin continuing to write scenes - that plans are afoot to turn Kill Bill into two 90-minute features that would be released within five weeks of each other. The first film would end with a cliffhanger, so that everyone would want to see the second half."

Kill Bill follows a hit woman Uma Thurman who survives an assassination attempt on her wedding day and vows revenge on those who tried to kill her, especially her previous employer (Bill).
