From Dusk Till Dawn
This is one of those vampire/comedy movies. Definitely a must-see. It has two great actors (George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino) who are bank robbers trying to get to Mexico. They end up kidnapping a family (which includes a former priest, a son and a daughter (Juliette Lewis)) and they take their RV to get past the border.
Once they arrive in Mexico, Clooney and Tarantino who are the Gecko brothers in the movie are meeting their friends to split up their share of the money that they stole from the bank. The place to meet was the Titty Twister (great name huh?).
Everything was going fine until a big fight breaks out and almost everyone in the bar turns into vampires. The best part of the movie has to be the show that Selma Hayek puts on in the bar. She is absolutely amazing.
This movie is a must-see just for that part with Selma Hayek alone.
This movie won 9 out of 10 stars for me.

Well I think that the Selma Hayek scene has to be one of the greatest scenes in all of horror-moviedom. Selma was great in this and I heard that George Clooney kept screwing the scene up on purpose just so she’d have to do it again.
This is on of Tarantino’s best films in my book. I haven’t seen some of his newer ones, so I am just basing this on things prior to the release of this movie. Another great Tarantino series was Kill Bill (which was great, but no a horror flick so we won’t review this here).
Juliette Lewis was great in this film, but definitely older than the 16 she was playing. I think overall this film rates a 9 out of 10 as well.
If you haven’t seen From Dusk Till Dawn you need to do so right away. This is a MUST see for anyone that likes vampire flicks.
