Hmmm, I'm beginning to think Zero doesn't like surprises!
:p
That From Dusk 'Till Dawn is not on rails and might hit you with its own brand of immoralities is its virtue. Tarantino (in probably his finest performance, and he is indeed a nasty bastard in this murderer/sex offender role) is certainly not the protagonist in this picture; the (predominantly male) audience is most likely to identify with George Clooney, who - let's face it - is undeniably fucking cool as the less psychopathic Seth Gecko (from his fine handling of Tarantino's one-liners to that awesome tattoo).
From Dusk 'Till Dawn is wreckless and, again, with a killer unpredictable twist - this kind of thing had never been done before, and was a welcome change from the usual hip crime thrillers or splashy vampire epics of the time.
By fusing these genres together in the same movie in such a bold and confident fashion, Rodriguez challenged his audience... I for one bought it hook, line and sinker.
:cool:
