"Great Horror Flick!"

Rating: 7/10 (21 April 2012)

Harvey Keitel, George Clooney, Juliette Lewis, Quentin Tarantino and Salma Hayek star in Robert Rodriguez's 1996 horror film. Seth (Clooney) and Richard (Tarantino) Gecko are 2 dangerous criminals trying to cross the Mexican border eluding Police. They decide to kidnap a minister, Jacob Fuller (Kietel) who's vacationing with his daughter, Kate (Lewis) and adopted son, Scott (Ernest Liu). They head across Mexico to a bar, "The Titty Twister" and discover that it's inhabited by vampires led by Santanico Pandemonium (Hayek). It becomes a battle of good & evil for the Geckos and Fullers fighting to survive. This is a great film with a cool cast and excellent make-up effects. Tom Savini (Creepshow), Cheech Marin (Desperado), John Saxon (A Nightmare on Elm Street), Fred Williamson (Starsky & Hutch), Danny Trejo (Heat), Michael Parks (Kill Bill: Vol. 2) and Kelly Preston (Jerry Maguire) also make appearances. I recommend this.
