The couple, looked every inch the criminal duo as they repliaced some of the most iconic moments from the film in snaps they shared to Instagram on Sunday.

Proving herself to be a fan of the movie, Kourtney captioned the pictures with a quote from Alabama. 

The quote reads: ‘Amid the chaos of that day, when all I could hear was the thunder of gunshots, and all I could smell was the violence in the air, I look back and am amazed that my thoughts were so clear and true, that three words went through my mind endlessly, repeating themselves like a broken record: you’re so cool, you’re so cool, you’re so cool.’

The movie has become a sort of symbol for the the pair, with Barker even getting the words ‘you’re so cool’ written in Kourtney’s handwriting tattooed his hip. 

Fooling around: The pair went to a nearby neighborhood to recreate a scene from the film

A longtime lover of the film, the drummer additionally named his 15-year-old daughter Alabama, after Arquette’s character. 

His ex Shanna Moakler spoke to Us Weekly in May and said that ‘Kravis’ obsession with the movie was just ‘recycling,’ as the former pair had bonded over the movie years ago. 

‘What was weird is that they were posting about a movie that Travis and I basically bonded over. I called him Clarence in the movie. We named our daughter after the character Alabama in the movie. 

I walked down the aisle to You’re So Cool from True Romance.Our first dance at our wedding was to the love song from True Romance.’

 Additionally Kourtney posted more images from the stylized shoot with the caption ‘Okey dokey doggie daddy.’

Written by Quentin Tarantino just a year after his feature film debut, True Romance focuses on newlyweds Clarence Worley and Alabama Whitman (played by Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette) who go on the run after stealing a shipment of drugs.

The film boasts a huge ensemble cast including Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt, and Christopher Walken, and despite struggling at the US box office earned positive reviews. 

This is not the first popular culture moment that Kravis has attempted this Halloween.

Earlier this month, the loved-up couple transformed into iconic punk dup Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen. 

Kourtney looked unrecognizable in a blonde wig as Nancy, while Travis also looked remarkably different as Sex Pistols bassist Sid.

Her better half wore a leather jacket and a black shirt underneath, as well as black pants and a spiky black wig. 

Really paying attention to detail, Barker sported a replica of Vicious’ necklace which had a padlock as the pendant. 

Kardashian captioned the series of photos, ’till death do us part.’  

The starlet also posted a racy photo of handcuffs on a bed to her Instagram Story later that night – which could have been in reference to the wild and sometimes criminal behavior of their punk heroes.

Travis popped the question to Kourtney earlier this month at the Rosewood Miramar Hotel in Montecito, California with a giant diamond ring said to be worth $1 million. 

Kourtney shared images of the lavish proposal on Instagram with the caption ‘forever,’ as they embraced amid a sea of red roses. 

The marriage will mark Kourtney’s first and Travis’ third.
