Apparently Death Proof is suffering the same fate in Europe as his double feature counterpart did in the US; so far the box office results are bad - I hope it will do better in Germany (release: 07/18/07) and in the UK (release: 09/21/07).
 Variety.com (06/24/07) wrote: | | With tentpoles dominant, counterprogramming forays such as Quentin Tarantino’s "Death Proof" have struggled. Released as part of "Grindhouse" Stateside, "Death" has turned in tepid numbers in Europe, with an international cume around $10 million from 10 markets. In France, it was off 53% in its third frame for a $3.5 million cume; Italian biz in its fourth weekend was mild as it lost more than 100 playdates and brought in just $65,000. |

Apparently, Death Proof did quite well at German box office:
| Variety.com (07/24/07) wrote: | | Senator Film's strategy to release "Grindhouse" as two separate films in Germany appears to have paid off. Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof" opened at number four with $1.2 million from 357, behind "Shrek the Third," which, exhibiting strong ogre legs, managed $1.3 million in its sixth frame. |
