Quentin Tarantino's Rolling Thunder Pictures Triple Feature

On April 16, 2013, coinciding with the release of Django Unchained, Miramax and Lions Gate released a special DVD set of three films previously released under the Rolling Thunder Pictures label. The set includes The Mighty Peking Man, a King Kong knock-off; Detroit 9000, a detective-style blaxploitation film; and Switchblade Sisters, an obvious inspiration for Tarantino's films. Tarantino said of the collection "If you like my stuff, you can look at it as – this is where mine came from."[citation needed]
