1996
Dimension Collector's Series DVD

We start off with a Texas ranger heading into a liquor store. He talks to the clerk for a few minutes then heads back to use the bathroom.Then we see the Geko brothers running up and confronting the clerk. They hear that the cop is coming back out,so they hide again. Well the Gekos come back out and shot the ranger. Then also killed the clerk. And on their way out they set the place on fire.

We find out that the younger brother had just helped the older brother escape from prison. They have robbed a bank and are now on their way to Mexico. They end up kidnapping an minister and his 2 kids. So they make the minister drive his RV to Mexico. They arrive at the place they are suppose to meet up with their contact. It is a huge bar called the Titty Twister. The older brother says everyone is gonna go inside and have some drinks. While they wait till dawn for their contact to show up.

A little while after they are inside,they discover that everyone working in the bar is a vampire. And we get close to a hour of our "heroes" versus the vampires. We get plenty of great kills. Plus an almost naked Selma Hayek. Finally it is dawn and only the older Geko brother and the daughter are still alive.

Now this DVD set is packed with plenty of extras. The film has a great commentary with Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarrentino. Then the second DVD has  the "Full Tilt Boogie" documentary that was made while the filming was happening.Sadly this edition is out of print. And the only version that is in print is the new re-release from Echo Bridge. This version has no extras at all. From Dusk to Dawn gets  a B+.
