From Dusk Till Dawn Reviews

Based on an early Tarantino script, Rodriguez' movie is an incoherent B-pic, in which the sensibilities of the two filmmakers clash.

It is a shame to see so much good talent giving such low-yield results.

Full Review

Energetic low-budget vampire nonsense from Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino.

If you're going to like it, you already know it.

Imagine two movies plucked from opposite sides of the video store.

Full Review | Original Score: B-

A deliriously trashy, exuberantly vulgar, lavishly appointed exploitation picture, this weird combo of road-kill movie and martial-arts vampire gorefest is made to order for the stimulation of teenage boys.

Full Review

On a mindless exploitation level this is pretty good, but on other levels it seems to make promises that it fails to deliver on.

Full Review

A tired, humorless pastiche of various exploitation genres that is not the least bit imaginative in its campy deconstruction of conventions.

Nihilistic and initally unpleasant ... Once the vampires appear (unfortunately about 60 minutes too late), the movie becomes uproarious entertaiment with the most intense humans vs. vampires showdown since 1985's Fright Night.

| Original Score: 7/10

Like a Cheesecake Blizzard: It's a pulpy mess loaded with empty calories, but it's so divine that once you start, you can't help but shovel it into your mouth until the last drop, brain freeze and diet be damned.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/4

These guys were going for a B-movie feel, lots of blood, lots of guts, lots of tits and ass, and lots of fun, and for the most part, they achieved their goals.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10

This is a B-movie, albeit a largish budget B-movie, but with an undeniable B-movie spirit.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4

Rodriguez has a lot of fun dreaming up cool ways to kill people (he's making this his life's work), but he also gets something resembling a performance from Tarantino and transforms Clooney into a full-fledged movie star.

Mr. Rodriguez demonstrates his talents more clearly than ever -- he's visually inventive, quick-witted and a fabulous editor -- while still hampering himself with sophomoric material.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

Ask yourself "am I the kind of person who finds topless vampire strippers a source of constant amusement?" Only those who answer an enthusiastic "YES!" need apply.

| Original Score: 4/5

I can think of worse things to sit through than an orgy of bullets, exploding corpses, and stripper vampires.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5

This film is 'exploitation' in more than one sense of the word.

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10

A weird double-bill in itself: Part one's a crime drama, part two vampire splatter flick. It's an awkward pairing, but there's fun to be had.

| Original Score: 4/5

You got to admire how Rodriguez balances elements of action, comedy, horror, thriller, road movie and Western in the same film!

Full Review | Original Score: 4/4

The picture shows what happens when a writer (Tarantino) and a director (Rodriguez) come together and reinforce each other's worst tendencies and misconceptions.
