From Dusk Till Dawn Review
Written by: Norrock The Zombie Eater
There is one thing i've allways wondered. In the long history of horror movies how many damn vampire flicks have there been made? For!!! Gods Sake!!!. And how many of em are mocking one another in some way. My guess is a lot. Don't get me wrong there is alot of damn fine vampire flicks out. But very few of them are original. Some are just plain pitafull. The last really kool vampire flick i can recall seeing came out way back in 1996. And i am very proud to put "From Dusk Till Dawn" as my 7th horror film to watch on Halloween.
You may want to know what makes "From Dusk Till Dawn" rock n fucking roll better then any other vampire flick. Well one word to say and that word is gore!! A damn lot of it too!! And that is something you rarely see in a vampire flick. Most of em are about cheap looking vampire lesbos and gay acting gothic men that walk around with fake vampire teeth and contacts dressed all in black*A fucking poser if you want to know what i think about it* And what all of em seem to be seeking is necks to bite on. Yep that is about as much gore as you will get from typical vampire flicks just alot of neck blood.
"From Dusk Till Dawn" takes the typical bullshit and turns it into something that bites down really fucking hard and will not let go till your covered in blood. Its true this monster of a vampire movie has teeth and its not afraid to show them in all the right ways. You want basics well i've got basics. And no im not talking about the cheap ass cigarettes called basics The Zombie Eater pays a much higher price for death. *lights a cigg* Now read and learn you zombified chickens.
The Acting is well fucking played off. We see quite a lot of familiar faces. And all these folks do a damn good job. The Special FX is something i really want to touch on. As I've already said for this to be a vampire flick we get a shit load of gore. We see heads being ripped off, eyeballs poping out, chunks of flesh torn from different parts of the body, a still beating heart pulled from a chest,. The list goes on and on but i don't. Just take my word for it if you dig Romero style gore then you will definately dig "From Dusk Till Dawn"
Now it is time to make a sane man sad and madman happy. You guessed right it is story time so off you go you dead loveing fools. Anyone who watches this film for the first time and just happens to have no damn idea what "From Dusk Till Dawn" is about would probably never guess its about vampires from the way this movie starts off. The first 25 to 30 mins of this film is vampire free. But thats not really a bad thing it takes time to soke a good story in. Its all life in the fast lane for the Gecko brothers as they are on a wild crime spree. Leaveing a path of murder and destruction behind.
Along with 3 hostages the Gecko brothers make a run for it to get out of the US and into Mexico. In Mexico they will reach a Mexican bar by the name of Titty Twister. Sound like a fun place?. Well it is. Its a realy nice place to go meet your death. On a dark night our 5 friends arrive at the Titty Twister. The Gecko brothers has to meet up with some folks and take care of some business. They will have to wait till dawn to meet with em. So what more is there for the Gecko brothers to do then go into the Titty Twister bar and celebrate there success in escapeing the US. Yep the Gecko brothers and there 3 so called friends go inside the bar to see some Mexican titty action and to get shitfaced. They soon learn that the Mexicans of this bar are no bean pickers they are blood craveing vampires that comes from the burning pits of hell. It is a all night of evil at the Titty Twister. And before its over with blood is going to be all over the place. Hot sauce with your tacos anyone?.
Over all i give "From Dusk Till Dawn" a 10 cause its well worth it. If what you are looking to watch on halloween is a vampire flick that gives more of a bite then a suck. Then you need to buy "From Dusk Till Dawn" as soon as you it is well fucking worth it. Now all of you peter pans its time for you to go back to your fucked up neverlands. Till my 6th review comes about RIP.
