Officially known as '''The Grindhouse Cinema Database''', established in July {{tag|Founded in 2007|2007}} by [https://www.grindhousedatabase.com/index.php/User:Admin Sebastian] from {{tag|Berlin}} in [[:Category:Germany|Germany]], The Deuce got its name from the slang term coined for {{tag|New York City|New York City's}} 42nd Street where many {{tag|Cinema|film theatres}} known as 'Grindhouses' played the kinds of genre {{tag|film}}s we are covering and celebrating here. This is a site dedicated to international Exploitation genre films from the 1930s - early {{tag|1980s}} i.e., the kinds of exploitation / cult films we would programme at our own modern grindhouse. Our main goal at The Deuce is to include as much information about that bygone era as we can and make this the ULTIMATE online classic Exploitation film wiki / database. | Officially known as '''The Grindhouse Cinema Database''' ('''GCDb'''), established in July {{tag|Founded in 2007|2007}} by [https://www.grindhousedatabase.com/index.php/User:Admin Sebastian] from {{tag|Berlin}} in [[:Category:Germany|Germany]], The Deuce got its name from the slang term coined for {{tag|New York City|New York City's}} 42nd Street where many {{tag|Cinema|film theatres}} known as 'Grindhouses' played the kinds of genre {{tag|film}}s we are covering and celebrating here.
