Especially the second part will find a smaller audience and in a way I was a little curious how the first part would have ended if they kept it as serious as it was. You see how this movie is actually two movies. Now they are a team and face vampires as their opponents. The Fullers and Geckos survive together with a guy who calls himself Sex Machine (Tom Savini) and a guy named Frost (Fred Williamson). Not long after they are inside it is revealed that every crew member from the bar is actually a vampire, feeding themselves on bikers and truckers that visit the place. So we have the first hour, filled with Tarantino-stuff in its dialogue and references, and then the party arrives at a bar called the Titty Twister. He travels with his adopted son Scott (Ernest Liu) and his daughter Kate (Juliette Lewis). Father Jacob (Harvey Keitel) used to be a minister but gave up faith after his wife died in a car crash. That the entire state of Texas and the FBI are looking for them is a problem so they force the Fuller family to bring them across the border with their motor home. We learn they want to reach the Mexican border. They are bank robbers, although they do the occasional killing as well. We see two brothers named Seth (George Clooney) and Richie Gecko (Quentin Tarantino). This means the first hour is just brutal and bloody, sometimes a little funny, in the 'Pulp Fiction' kind of way. It is brilliant, brutal, bloody, horror, silly and funny the way Sam Raimi's 'The Evil Dead'-series is all those things, the twist here is a screenplay written by Quentin Tarantino.
'From Dusk Till Dawn' is kind of brilliant, brutal, bloody, Tarantino, horror, silly and funny.
