Did this movie really inspire Tarantino's "Kill Bill" flicks?


Especially with its coma and then revenge upon multiple enemies plotline? So Tarantino must have then seen and possibly even enjoyed this early much maligned Seagal flick then? Interesting.

To be fair, Hard to Kill was a box office success and is generally considered one of Seagal's better films. I'm sure it had plenty of unironic fans at the time, although within a decade Seagal's reputation went from promising action star to punchline.

QT never referenced Hard to Kill as any inspiration. Similar storyline is just random despite TQ borrowing heavy from other films in his productions.
