From Dusk Till Dawn

Cheech Marin, Danny Trejo, Ernest Liu, Fred Williamson, George Clooney, Harvey Keitel, Juliette Lewis, Kelly Preston, Marc Lawrence I, Michael Parks, Quentin Tarantino, Salma Hayek, Tom Savini

The notorious Gecko Brothers, two of America's most dangerous criminals, are on the run from the Texas police and the FBI after a crime spree through the Southwest. Across the border in Mexico, the my...( read more  read more... )sterious Carlos offers sanctuary to criminals on the lam, but first they must slip past the border patrol. Enter the Fuller family: Jacob, a minister who has lost his faith and his children, the vulnerable teenage Kate and her younger brother Scott, on a road trip in their new R.V. The Gecko Brothers kidnap the Fullers and high-tail it to freedom with the promise to let the family go once they hook up with their criminal connection in Mexico. The rendezvous point is the Titty Twister, the wildest bar this side of the Rio Grande. The night is full of seductive promise as the group settles back to wait for Carlos and his boys to arrive at sunrise. But unbeknownst to the brothers or their hostages, the management and staff of this particular establishment have a taste for blood--in the vampire sense.

    Great film. Two films in one really and the first time I saw it, I didn't have a clue it was a vampire movie. The script is a bit annoying at times though.

    Excellent movie, starts of as a nasty violent criminal story as the Gecko's escape prison. But then turns into an amazingly gorey and sexy vamp flick. Hayek is stunning and drop dead gorgeous as are the other female neck biters and the rest is a classic all star Rodriguez line up...( read more). The action is kinda cheesey but it works well and does the job. Clooneys best work by far and the soundtrack rocks.

    The true horror part is in the beginning with Tarantino's psycho. Once we get to the actual vampires it gets cartoony, but fun.

    From Dusk Til Dawn is one of those movies I can watch a thousand times. It is not only one of my favorite vampire movies, but a favorite, period. I genuinely love this movie!
    I am a fan of both Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. I think this is a phenomenal collaboration for...( read more) them. The story is great, the acting isn't miserable, and the horror aspect isn't over the top cheesy.
    The casting of this movie is spot on. I love Tarantino as Richie, he does disturbed so convincingly. George Clooney, Harvey Keitel, Juliette Lewis, and Cheech Marin are also stellar. Salma Hayek is fantastic as Santanico Pandemonium. She's beautiful.
    This film has some excellent dialogue and some well timed comic moments. I remember seeing it for the first time in the theater. I literally burst out laughing a time or two. This film also has a sublime soundtrack. Dark Night by The Blasters and After Dark by Tito and Tarantula remain on my IPod.

    Dusk Till Dawn to me, is to vampire movies, what Shaun Of The Dead is to zombie movies. Just a really good silly and funny vampire movie. Loved the cast. Juliette Lewis was great, loved George Clooney and Tarantino. It has to be one of my favorite vampire flicks.

    action horror flick starring George Clooney, Harvey Keitel, Juliette Lewis and Quentin Tarantino. directed by Robert Rodriguez.

    brothers Seth and Richie Gecko (Clooney, Tarantino) are criminals on the run. they encounter Jacob Fuller (Keitel) and his family at a motel and end up...( read more) taking the former priest and his family hostage. the Geckos decide to take the Fullers with them to meet up with their contact at the strip club The Titty Twister, on the boarder of the US and Mexico. but what lies within the club is more than just sex and booze and soon the criminals and the hostages find themselves working alongside one another to survive.

    this film is why I love Rodriguez. he isn't afraid to go to the line of cheese and tiptoe along it. he always manages to find that balance between over-the-top silliness and just enough silly to make for a fun and good time.

    gore. comedy. action. boobies. good stuff! ♥

    The first half is utter brilliance. It has the obvious trademarks of both Rodriguez and Tarantino and the outcome is a gripping crime story. The second half is utter brilliance for other reasons...an action film with vampires! How can you not love the outcome of the two mixed tog...( read more)ether?



    The screenplay by Tarantino is brilliant (as always), even when it does go onto unfamilier Tarantino turf with vampires. He manages to make the screenplay stand out at all parts of the film.



    Rodiguez directs with a great fast pace and uses imaginitive editing (which he did himself) too.



    The acting is great. Clooney is the best of the film and the ebst iv'e ever seen of him so far. Also, surprisingly, Tarantino is brilliant too. It is great to see him in more than just a cameo.



    This is a unique film that is almost impossible not to like.
