FROM DUSK TILL DAWN
Mama’s got nothing to say…she’s dead.
PLOT
Seth and Ritchie are two outlaws on the run from the law and looking hot while they do it. After a run in with the local law at the beginning of the movie, they end up hiding out in a hotel. There they meet Jacob and his kids Scott and Kate. They force the family to get in their motor home and drive them across the border to Mexico, where they promise they’ll let them go. They make it to the strip bar Titty Twister and Seth makes the family stick around. They quickly learn that the bar is run by vampires and find themselves stuck with a few other patrons just trying to make it through the night.
TRIVIA
Danny Trejo is the only actor who appeared in both the original movie and the two direct to video sequels.
THOUGHTS
Every time I watch this movie, I find something that I missed before. Given that I’ve probably seen it a dozen times, that’s really saying something. From Dusk Till Dawn is fairly gory at times, which is great for us horror movie fans yet there’s something about it that makes me not want to classify it as a horror movie. There’s just way too much humor in the movie for me to see it as a straight horror flick. I also love me some George Clooney, who looks so great with the neck tattoo that I want him to get one in real life. Sue me, sometimes I’m still a girl! Anyway it’s a great movie and I’m glad I decided to watch it, even though I actually hadn’t seen it in a few years.
