From Dusk Till Dawn


From Dusk Till Dawn
(1996) [Trailer]
Director: Robert Rodriquez (IMDB)

Synopsis: Two brothers are on the run from the law and end up having the night of their lives in Mexico, but not the kinda of night one would expect.

This was one of my favorite movies as a teenager growing up in the late 90's. I've seen it many times but never on blu-ray, I must say it looks glorious. It's a tremendous example of genre mixing: it's part outlaw crime spree flick meets part vampire flick.There is something so easy about watching this movie, it's a smooth pleasing experience for me from beginning to end. Some might take issue with the way it switches gears an hour in but I think it's brilliant. Robert Rodriguez (director) is known for making films on the cheap, but you wouldn't be able to tell with this film... it feels huge. A definite must see if you've never experienced it. If you have, go here and do yourself a favor.

Love, your pal.
Curtis.
