In this film, Rodriguez teams up with his buddy Quentin Tarantino. You know what that means. A lot of artistic violence and very well textured script writing. This film is proof that low-budget does not equal to shitty movies. Uwe Boll, you need to watch some Rodriguez flicks. The movie follows two brothers running from the law, only to end up in a hellish bar, full of naked chicks, called the Titty Twister. Man, I love that name.
This film captivated me mostly because of its dialogue. Clooney and Tarantino are great at playing 2 crazy brothers. Clooney, being the older of the two ran the show. While, Tarantino plays a psychotic delusional pervert, that is both creepy and likable at the same time. The acting is a bit over-the-top but it fits the script, so it works well. Expect to see the usual suspects in the cast which includes Danny Trejo, Selma Hayek, and Cheech Marin.
Can you still turn this movie down?
The movie was great all the way through until they started fighting vampires. Then, it became okay. Don’t get me wrong, the action scenes were entertaining as hell, but it almost became a different movie. It wasn’t as realistic as it was before, and the characters lost their sense of reality. The brothers were scarier before they started fighting the vampires. Plus, I enjoyed the idea of not rooting for the main characters.
Overall, the movie is well worth watching. It doesn’t feel too long which is always a plus, I hate movies that are too long. The cast is great, and Rodriguez does a wonderful job of putting this film together. So, if you haven’t seen this flick, go check it out.

This is one of those movies that i can always be in the mood to watch. Its a good 90’s flick, before they started doing everything in computer animation.

”Dusk Till Dawn” is the type of film that you can watch over and over again. It’s funny and has some nice action. Along with ”The Lost Boys,” it is definitely one of my favorite vampire films of all time!

The asian guy was funny. Clooney’s character always patronized him.
