From Dusk Till Dawn is a movie directed দ্বারা Robert Rodriguez, who worked on Desperado and Sin City and written দ্বারা Quentin Tarantino, who worked on Kill Bill and Pulp Fiction. With such a creative duo, আপনি can only imagine that this movie was total insanity. And… You’re right. It is complete chaos with this movie. The film follows two criminals and brothers, Seth and Richie Gecko, who are running from the FBI and police for crimes of robbery and murder. They met with the Fuller family, consisting of father and preacher Jacob, his son Scott, and his daughter Kate, and have them smuggle them across the Mexican border, so they can arrive to the strip club, the Titty Twister, where they will meet their contract Carlos at dawn. However, it turns out that the strippers are actually vampires… seriously. After killing almost all of the patrons, including Seth, Richie, Jacob, Scott, Kate, a biker named Sex Machine and a vietnam veteran named Frost survive and now must fight off the vampire strippers… seriously. So, yeah, in case আপনি couldn’t tell, the idea of vampire strippers just baffles me. And this is coming from the guy loves Jojo. But that doesn’t mean that I hate the movie. No, in fact, I প্রণয় it a whole lot.
Okay, so, pros. George Clooney as the main character. I don’t watch much চলচ্চিত্র with George Clooney, one of the first being…. ব্যাটম্যান and Robin, but I do like his অভিনয় in this film. He’s an asshole, but not an unlikable one. He’s a very enjoyable one, if that makes any sense. Also, the vampire designs in this film look pretty good. From the change in the characters eyes and teeth, to the complete disfigured and decrepit looks of the আরো ancient vampires. It all looks pretty well done with how they সরানো and react to the other characters. It definitely makes them appear আরো realistic in that sort of way. I just like some of the effects that went into this movie. Some may call them laughable, but for 1996, they looked impressive. Also (Spoilers), the shot of the club being on শীর্ষ of an aztec temple at the end of the movie was the greatest part of the entire movie.
Now, some cons. First off, stripper vampires… seriously. Every time I say that, it’s just as hard for me to believe that it was an actual thing. I mean… stripper vampires… seriously. How can anyone say that correctly. Though, to be fair, after আপনি watch the movie, the idea of stripper vampires… seriously, begins to wear off. Also, the two youngest actors in the film… I don’t hate them, but there are times when they get annoying. Also, some scenes tend to drag on. Their awesome, sure, but on multiple viewings of the movie, they just get pretty boring, pretty fast. It also doesn’t help that, some time in the summer of this year, Syfy would প্রদর্শনী this movie almost every week. The movie also seems to be set in mostly one place. Now, I believe that if আপনি can do it right, আপনি can have one set be amazing for the entire movie. কেবিন in the Woods was mostly set in just the cabin, and that movie was amazing. The club looks nice, but it gets pretty dull after a while. But, I can at least enjoy some of the action scenes and watching the ভ্যাম্পায়ার blow up in old 80s cheesy action movie fashion.
Due to being a cult film, it makes sense that this movie would get some popularity due to this. The series came along in a box with other Miramax “classics”, such as Mimic, another horror movie that I will be reviewing in the future. The movie’s popularity also helped it get a lot of things, like the release of the soundtrack, a video game released দ্বারা Cryo Interactive, who worked on games like……… Um…….. Odyssey: The খুঁজুন for Ulysses… Anyone? From Dusk Till Dawn also got two straight-to-video sequels, that were obviously crap. It even got a TV series of the same name being worked on দ্বারা Rodriguez, which continues the story of the characters from the movie and expands the story of the vampires. First I mention Evil Dead getting a TV series, and now From Dusk Till Dawn. I guess many cult horror films are good at getting TV shows. So in conclusion, From Dusk Till Dawn; An insane movie with stripper ভ্যাম্পায়ার (Seriously), but a damn good entertaining one as well. I recommend it if you’re into the style of লেখা দ্বারা these two classic directors. Take care.
