In Wolf Creek, had the girls further shot the baddie in his lair or smashed his head in with heavy objects and killed him... no more tension.
Tom Savini's character 'Sex Machine' explains the situation with the vampires in From Dusk 'Till Dawn: "These vamps... they're strong, but they have soft bodies...".

Dusk til dawn gave themselves an out, but its still a cop out. The vampires were mindless. its like the creatures are from theoriginal Doom, they just run at the victims until killed. At least in Dog Soldeirs, the werewolves would get hurt and back off.
Zombies are mindless by nature, so of course they dont know to run.
Vampires were initially established as one thing, but it's too hard to make them cerebral, so they just turn them into, like i said, bloodsucking zombies. Not to mention, you get a scratch from one, and in 2 minutes, you are a one too...:rolleyes:
its taking the easy way out. The writers have a habit of painting themselv3es into a corner, then bullshitting their way out. It's not a technique i use, and i dont respect it.
