#FROM DUSK TILL DAWN CAST TV MOVIE#
I get it, he wants revenge but abandoning his wife & baby daughter just to avenge his mentor? Losing his job & realistically looking at some custodial time? Calm the fuck down, Freddie.Īnyway, if you know the plot of the movie this bar is actually a front for hungry & evil vampires. Meanwhile Ranger Freddie has left his wife & baby daughter, attacked other policemen & snuck across the border to try & catch the Geckos.
The group get across the border, eventually (I told you this show is dragged out) & go to a dive bar/strip joint called the Titty Twister & await Carlos’s arrival. The pair end up taking the Fuller family hostage (Jacob, the father (Robert Patrick) and a preacher who has lost his faith after the death of his wife, his adopted son, Scott & his daughter, Kate or as he calls her, Katie-cakes.
The brothers are heading for the Mexican border where they will meet with the mysterious Carlos who is going to help them escape. After running into Ranger Earl at a gas station, the brothers kill him too but get injured in a shootout with Ranger Freddie who vows to get his revenge on them for killing his mentor. They robbed a bank & ended up killing several people as well as a few policemen. Cotrona) and Richie (Zane Holtz) are criminals on the run. It’s a mess, all over the place with a total lack of competent story-telling.
#FROM DUSK TILL DAWN CAST TV SERIES#
Every time it looked like the series might be brave enough to forget about the movie altogether, we get another scene or line of dialogue jammed in awkwardly. Instead we get the plot of the original movie stretched out over 7 and a half hours with new plot twists, new characters & a background story involving a cult. I doubt it would have been great but it wouldn’t have been this abomination. A series that focuses on the vampires & their history set after the events of the film would have worked a lot better. The movie had enough mystery surrounding it that an expansion of that was definitely a good idea. The thing is I get it, I can see what the plan was here. If the show is to be its own thing…why is most of the first season a remake? Why does almost every scene get redone in a different & worse way? Why do some of the better moments from the film get dropped for another lengthy ‘talky’ bit? Why spend 7 episodes building towards the vampire scene in the bar only to have it last 5 minutes? Why make the preacher character not just unlikable but kind of creepy? Why cast Jake Busey as sex machine? Why snake vampires? Why does it get so complicated? Stretching an idea out to such an extent that it snaps & whips you in the face leaving you bloodied, bruised & even more confused. That is 7 and a half hours that I want back from everyone involved with this train wreck of a show.Īm I being harsh? Have you seen it? If you have let’s be honest here, it is terrible. So, ten episodes lasting 45 minutes each, that is 450 minutes, that is 7 and a half hours. Oh yeah, imagine my shock & horror to find out that not only does it have a second season but it also has a third, someone take the fucking wheel. What did I just watch? What the fuck did I just watch? Ok, let’s do some simple maths here…From Dusk Till Dawn: Season One is 10 episodes long.
