We all know Quentin Tarantino has a penchant for drama. His vision often plays out in vomit-inducing, absolutely glorious blood bath — or spraying — scenes. And while the scalping in “Inglorious Basterds” showcases this aspect of his directorial flair, Tarantino has a subtler, though nonetheless effective and characteristically his, technique — the camera zoom. Some of the zooms are swift and kitschy, like most used in the sick sword scenes in “Kill Bill Vol. 1″ and “Kill Bill Vol. 2.” Others crawl at an agonizing pace, like in the last scene of “Reservoir Dogs” (SPOILER ALERT) where Mr. White (Harvey Keitel) is cradling the maimed body of Mr. Orange (Tim Roth) before he puts a shotgun to his friend’s head to blow his brains and put him out of misery. As an ode to the Tarantino zoom in, HuffPost made a mashup of a handful of the best.
