This is just one of those most surprising movies I have ever watched that shocked me how good it was at the end, when I didn't know at the time how much I apparently liked ugly gooey gore displayed prolifically on bodies being killed. I diagnosed myself a sick puppy after watching that movie, when I rented it from Blockbuster many years ago.
I loved the looks on y'all faces when Salma turned and bit quieten!! I'm glad you enjoyed it I watched it when it came out in the theater I'm a serious movie buff especially Horror
First time I saw it my mum told me to come get her when "it happened" and I went to get her like 6 times throughout the movie and she's just like "nope, it's coming"
This movie is the perfect movie to watch someone watch for the first time. When Aaron was like "Where is this movie going" I was like "whatever you're thinking is wrong" lol
It took him like a dozen times to get the line "I will turn this place into Benny's world of blood. My god the outtakes of this movie are gold, lmfao 😂
That was my first experience when I was over at a girls house I was seeing. Had just picked up food and brought it over and she said it was a favorite of hers from childhood. Lmao spot on for her personality tbh. It was so fun watching it and not knowing what was happening until everything came together.
“They were not Psychos, Carlos, they were Vampires! Psychos don’t explode when sunlight hits them, I don’t give a f*** how crazy they are!!!” -I love this insane movie!
The guy with the penis gun is the legend Tom Savini, special effects genius, and the man who pulls the switchblade on him is Greg Nicotero, executive producer of The Walking Dead and also a special effects genius
*Yep, Nicotero of KNB EFX Group, which was founded by Robert Kurtzman, Greg Nicotero, and Howard Berger. Nicotero and Berger met while performing special makeup effects under Tom Savini on George Romero's zombie film "Day of the Dead". Nicotero, Berger, and Kurtzman all worked together on Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead II". In 1988, the three formed their own company. The name KNB was chosen to represent the first letter of each founder's last name.* ⬅⚠🎬📀
@@NicholasCorvinKNB also approached QT to write the script for From Dusk Til Dawn in 1990, with the intention of making their own horror movie with Kurtzman directing. Instead of asking for money, QT wrote the script in exchange for KNB agreeing to do the special effects in Reservoir Dogs for free. After a few years of the movie not getting made and QT’s career taking off, KNB agreed to relinquish the rights to let QT and Rodriguez make the movie.
I was set up across the aisle from Tom Savini at a show just across the river from NYC. We spent the weekend talking movies and models. I was there as a professional model builder and writer, later I became a prop builder, art director, prop master and continued building professionally until I retired. Tom was one of the coolest people and told me about some of the effects he came up with. Many still used today.
Same here but @ a convention in Cleveland. We watched a video tape of the Movie Troy on the VCR I had setup because his setup was all hi tech DVD. It was early and we were the only 2 in the room. Hell of a guy. Good times
And adding to this: Tom Savini regularly show up in Romero movies as he was the guy behind the special effects, and at least two points, show up as a Zombie!
The Band in this movie "Tito & Tarantula" is a fantastic live act, their concerts are fantastic, even after more than 25 years later. Saw them many times, always great.
The way that this movie changes from a typical Tarantino crime flick into over the top horror is one of the slickest bait and switches every pulled off. I am so glad that you guys went into this blind.
I love when people see this movie for the first time because its such an absolute swerve when the vampires appear, nobody ever sees it coming. When this movie first premiered and it reached the Titty Twister scene people in the cinema were asking out loud "what the hell kind of movie is this?!"
This movie probably has the best narrative left turn ever. It goes from being a hard-boiled "fugitives on the run" crime film into full-on splatterhouse vampire movie.
That foot scene with Salma Hayek must have been the highest point in Quentin Tarantino's life!😂 Also, fun fact: Salma's actually terrified if snakes, so she had to be put in a hypnotic trance for the entire dance scene.
First time I saw this was at a friend’s after school. He told me it was a heist movie. So when the vampires showed up it is one of the most shocked/confused I’ve ever been in a movie. 😂
Agreed, he's something else. It's also interesting that the hotel scene with him & the bank teller is slightly similar to the one in Natural Born Killers with Mickey Knox and the poor hostage. That film also had Juliette Lewis in a very different role. Crazy movie, not sure how they'll feel about that movie though lol 😂 Now that they've seen this film, I hope that they decide to check out the El Mariachi Trilogy. While my favorite Tarantino character was when he played the poor Pick-Up Guy in Desperado (the second film in that trilogy), I think this was his best performance, he's really good at being creepy. The scene where he looks normal but his eyes are different always gives me chills. It's such a good little creepy moment, especially with Seth's tearful reaction. Solid acting by Clooney.
While I already knew about the Vampires, people who didn't see the trailer didn't know. The theater went CRAZY when the vampire thing happened. Some people even left the theater. Man, 1996... what a different theatrical world we lived it.
Yes, I hope they watch not only Desperado but the whole El Mariachi Trilogy. It'll be cool to see them get the references this film made to Desperado like Banderas' character El having Sex Machine's crotch gun in his guitar case. :) Another great one I hope they check out is The Faculty (1998), but they may have to check out the Body Snatchers films first.
@@TheBraunMachine2K24 I love The Faculty; I re-watch it on the regular. Body Snatchers (1993) is my personal version of the story. And the whole El Mariachi trilogy is so good.
@@lila10P Same here, The Faculty is so much fun. Yeah, I enjoyed the 1993 version as much as I did the 1978 version, I wished the one with Nicole Kidman & Daniel Craig was more like those but I still liked it. The Faculty & Body Snatchers (1993) are so underrated IMHO, wished more reacted to them on TH-cam.
The Father is Harvey Keitell. Probably spelled it wrong. He's probably one of the well know actors ever. Done everything. Worked with everyone worth working with. For over three decades. A lot of gangster movies though.
The guy with the crotch gun is Tom Savini, who is a practical effects pioneer (Day of the Dead). I think he did most of the practical effects here. I saw him at a horror con, and he did indeed invent and build that gun.
I also liked his short scene in the Dawn of the dead remake, him talking about the "twitchers". Also he had a minor cameo in Land of the dead as the machete zombie. Talking about cameos Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg also cameo as zombies in that movie.
😂😂😂👍👍 I can't imagine watching this at the movie theatre with a bunch of people, not knowing the big vampire twist was coming ... especially, right after a spectacular dance performance‼
Hate to burst your bubble, but…. When this came out it was advertised as a vampire movie. No secret. What surprised us in the theaters was that it was a heist movie for the first half.
Nobody noticed that when Richey went for a lunch run and came back with Big Kahuna burgers, which is the exact same burger Jules (Samuel Jackson) was eating at the apartment of the kids that stole Mr. Wallace's brief case.
The sudden shift from crazy drama action movie to vampire movie might be one of the biggest twists ever. It doesn’t catch everybody, because some people knew going in/know now going in. But when you have no clue what this movie is, and suddenly it becomes *that*, it’s fucking insane. It’s like a different movie starts playing.
The humorous line, "No thanks, I've already had a wife", was improvised by George Clooney. Director Robert Rodriguez never intended it to be in the final cut, but after the studio included the line in a trailer, he felt obligated to include it in the film. Salma Hayek has a real fear of snakes and had always refused to be near them. Naturally when she read the script, she knew her phobia would prevent her from taking the part. Robert Rodriguez conned her into thinking that Madonna was ready to nab the part instead so Hayek spent two months with therapists to overcome her fear. Salma Hayek did not have a choreographer for her dance, because, according to her, you can't choreograph the live snake she wore around her neck. So director Robert Rodriguez just told her to feel the music and dance to it. Rodriguez used the same tactic with Jessica Alba in Sin City (2005). Green blood was used for the vampires to get the movie past the censors.
All I know about this movie is that here in Brazil it is called "Um drink no inferno", like "A drink in hell", and I always thought the title was so cool. And that there's a scene with Salma Hayek that would have confirmed that I'm definitely not straight waaay way sooner.
There was a TV show based on the movie that aired on the now defunct station El Rey Network. It gives us backstory on the Gekko Brothers, Jacob Fuller and his family, as well as showing what really happened to Jacob's wife.
Every time I watch this I put it on for the crazy vampire action, but I swear each and every time I get so sucked into the first half that I forget the vampire stuff is coming. That is crazy writing right there!
Funny cuz us kids back then were raised on desperado and dusk till dawn from Rodriquez then just a few years later the newer gen were raised on spy kids, what a contrast : p
Ikr? He gave us El Mariachi, Desperado, From Dusk till Dawn & The Faculty & then he gave us the Spy Kids movies, then years later Sin City, Planet Terror & the Machete films, his films are always fun. Very underrated director IMHO.
I love that there is an influx of reactors FINALLY reacting to this awesome movie!! I always like to see people’s reactions to the big twist (as long as it wasn’t spoiled before seeing it lol). I was too young to see this in the 90s, but now I’m my 30’s, it’s still my favorite. ❤
So, Fred Williamson, the "A Team" guy, started out as an NFL player, turned to acting. Bit roles in a number of shows (Star Trek, for example). Leading character in the movie version of MASH. Got cast in a lot of Blaxspliotation movies in the 70s. In the 80s, he headed over to Italy and ended up in lead roles in a lot of low budget Italian action films before heading back to have minor roles throughout the last few decades. 134 roles and counting. Never actually was on the A Team. 1 episode of Fantasy Island though.
When I first saw this movie I thought it was a crime thriller, imagine my absolute shock when it turned into a vampire movie! No other movie I have ever seen has taken such a massive leap from one genre to another.
As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I knew they were gonna have a fun time with it & hope that they check out The Faculty (1998) next. If they loved FDTD, they'll love The Faculty but they have to see the Body Snatchers movies first because The Faculty talks about that plot/storyline.
It's the movie that really does take you on a trip you never thought you'd be on, and does make you think each time you see a scene, "How the F--k did they do it so freaking well to mess with me so frighteningly perfectly?"
Tarantino picked the most fun character to play, definitely!! This role is every actor's dream. "This bar is for bikers and truckers only": If they only knew that he was trying to spare them, hahahhaa... When the Queen Vampire is stalking the room, she is smelling out the people looking for the one that reeks the most of evil. That is why she hones in on him first. I think these vampires have a moral code, and that is why they only pick bikers and truckers hahahaa!!! Not saying that bikers and truckers are generally shady people, buuut.... Fun fact: Cheech plays three characters in this movie!
fun fact robert got the idea for this film after watchin predator (1987) in theaters opening night , as the film starts as an action film and end ups beeing a sci fie creature feature slasher , he loved the idea of two diffrent parts of a film and mixed this gangster road movie with a vampire splatter horror , he also ended up producing a predator film himself later called predators (2010)
My friend showed me this when I was in 7th grade not telling me anything about it. It scared the shit out of me, but I have grown to love it over the years. I love sharing it with people just to see their reactions to the twist.
Ikr? I feel the same way, Seth Gecko's still my favorite character he's ever played, he was so badass & had so many great quotes. "Everybody be cool, *YOU* be cool!" is a classic.
I love how Seth and Jacob don’t like each other, but are willing to put their differences aside to fight a common enemy. In this case, vampires. I also love Seth’s speech to Jacob about how he’s their best chance against the vamps, and how Jacob accepts that responsibility. Plus, there’s something funny about Jacob censoring himself.
They completely got any Goodfellas references completely wrong. That was a Martin Scorsese film. That was Joe Pesci in that movie and not Harvey Keitel. LOL
Love this reaction! Exactly the way I first saw this movie. At a friend's house, and he put it on and told me nothing about it. That twist is MIND BLOWING when you have no idea it's coming 😂😂
I remember when I first watched this movie I had no idea what to expect I definitely wasn’t expecting a vampire flick, and I damn sure didn’t count on seeing Salma Hayek put a foot in Tarantino’s mouth but knowing him it makes perfect sense such a weird, fun, unhinged ride. I also think this was the first time I saw Clooney play like a bad guy but I thought he was so cool and so bad ass. Please do DEATH PROOF NEXT!🙌🏾
YES! I LOVE THIS MOVIE. And I love when people have never heard or seen this... I put it own with ZERO idea about it and see their reactions! The sudden vampire twist makes this movie 10x better. One of my favorite movies. We don't get movies like this anymore 😢😢😢😢
HELL! YES! This is one of my all-time favorite films. I saw this in the theater (as part of a double feature with Don't Be A Menace...) and it was one of the best moviegoing experiences I've had. I bought the soundtrack and recently, I bought the out-of-print published screenplay. Before the film was released on home video, a friend got me a bootleg VHS. I used to run it on my TV in the background, while I did homework or art. I know this movie backwards and forwards, inside and out. The feature-length documentary, Full Tilt Boogie is also a ton of fun. They went through a lot to get this movie made and I'm so happy it's getting the love and recognition it deserves.
"...I'm gonna turn this place into The f**king Wild Bunch..." The Wild Bunch (1969) is a legendary film and one of Tarantino's favorites. Incrediblly violent but unforgettable. The final shootout beats the finales of so many films that came out decades later.
To be fair our sweet and lovely Tara was sick for a while it seems like she’s trying to get back into the swing of things, I hope she feels better I miss her high energy.
Trip thing about this movie, no matter how many times I've seen it in jus realizing that Trejo and Cheech both actually tried to save them. Twice they told them they weren't welcome but who they were as criminals wouldn't allow that to happen. Damn Also that body guitar scene😂
You guys should react to Wishmaster. That horror film from 1997 is such an underrated gem in the world of horror with one of the most one of a kind unique horror premises for this spooky month
That was an uber cute reaction. I've always loved FDTD. 99.9% of us knew it was a Vampire film when it was released...The cuteness factor comes from when the Bar locals transform and u 2 are like..."Are they're Aliens???.. They're Demons!!!, ,,,,,Oh ,,,wait ,,they're Vampires." Glad you enjoyed!
The sheriff whose acting Tara is admiring in the opening scene is the wonderful Michael Parks, who also played the sheriff investigating The Bride's shooting in Kill Bill 1 and the very distinguished Mexican gentleman who points Uma Thurman towards Bill in Kill Bill 2, along with something like 100 other film and TV roles.
I love seeing peoples reactions to this movie. Half the movie just seems like an ordinary action film until the vampires come in. You guys definitely had the best reaction I've seen so far.
Gonna show my age real quick, but we rented this from Blockbuster and we had no idea what it was about. We were digging it as like a thriller action kinda movie then the genre switch took us by total surprise 😂 it was nuts.
Now you guys need to watch both Grindhouse movies, back to back! Planet Terror and then Deathproof! Robert did a zombie/action film with Rose McGowan and Josh Brolin, followed up with a car chase/thriller from Quentin staring Rosario Dawson, Kurt Russell and Zoe Bell.
The person that plays Sex Machine is Tom Savini. Most know for his work behind the camera with practical effects in the Romero Zombie movies and Friday the 13th Parts 1 and 4. He a legend of the horror genre and it’s really cool to see him in front of the camera this time. He’s very funny in the role
There's a three season long tv series based on this film produced by Robert Rodriguez that takes the films story and then expands further, adding more vampire lore, and making some interesting changes to some of the main characters stories. It's well worth a watch.
If you guys love this collab of Quentin Tarentino and Rober Rodriguez, then you'll love Death Proof and Planet Terror. It's a double feature, but with all the horror and violence packed into 2 b-movie type films.
Glad to see that you had a blast watching this one! I certainly love it a lot myself. It’s not quite a perfect movie but I think it’s a great movie and just really entertaining. I love the acting, script, characters, dialogue, horror, vampire elements, and the different change in tone of this movie. Honestly, this is amongst Tarantino’s best work.
For more lore, Robert Rodríguez made a series explaining and adding to the lore even to why Richie was crazy. The first season is the movie and the seasons after does have Kate join Seth afterwards.

Nothing beats an unsuspecting viewer’s reaction to finding out it’s a vampire movie.
Ikr? It's always great to see hehe. :)
Absolutely, I was genuinely shocked when I first saw this, lol.
Wish I could delete my memory of this movie and watch it again with fresh eyes to have the same reaction they are having again :D
First time I saw it my mum told me to come get her when "it happened" and I went to get her like 6 times throughout the movie and she's just like "nope, it's coming"

This movie is the perfect movie to watch someone watch for the first time. When Aaron was like "Where is this movie going" I was like "whatever you're thinking is wrong" lol
I chuckled when you wondered why Tarantino wrote himself to play this character, knowing the scene with Selma Hayek was coming soon.
This is a Robert Rodriguez film btw. But Tarantino is close with him, he might have asked for a seen like that lol

I love when people go into this movie blind. It really is like two separate movies.
Like titanic 1st Part Romantic 2nd half horror.
That was my first experience when I was over at a girls house I was seeing. Had just picked up food and brought it over and she said it was a favorite of hers from childhood. Lmao spot on for her personality tbh. It was so fun watching it and not knowing what was happening until everything came together.
I always assumed Robert Rodriguez directed the first part and Tarantino did the Titty Twister part...
People forget that this was George's first starring lead in a film not TV, he was still a doctor on NBC's ER during this
“They were not Psychos, Carlos, they were Vampires! Psychos don’t explode when sunlight hits them, I don’t give a f*** how crazy they are!!!”

The humorous line, "No thanks, I've already had a wife", was improvised by George Clooney. Director Robert Rodriguez never intended it to be in the final cut, but after the studio included the line in a trailer, he felt obligated to include it in the film.
Salma Hayek has a real fear of snakes and had always refused to be near them. Naturally when she read the script, she knew her phobia would prevent her from taking the part. Robert Rodriguez conned her into thinking that Madonna was ready to nab the part instead so Hayek spent two months with therapists to overcome her fear.
Salma Hayek did not have a choreographer for her dance, because, according to her, you can't choreograph the live snake she wore around her neck. So director Robert Rodriguez just told her to feel the music and dance to it.
Rodriguez used the same tactic with Jessica Alba in Sin City (2005).
Green blood was used for the vampires to get the movie past the censors.
All I know about this movie is that here in Brazil it is called "Um drink no inferno", like "A drink in hell", and I always thought the title was so cool. And that there's a scene with Salma Hayek that would have confirmed that I'm definitely not straight waaay way sooner.
understandable.
From Dusk Til Dawn is the better title,
A Drink in Hell is the better title for THIS movie lol
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻⚡🥃
The Salma Hayek dance scene should be used to determine a person's sexual orientation 😅
@@alexp601 yup. Are you straight? Or are you into feet? 🤣
There was a TV show based on the movie that aired on the now defunct station El Rey Network. It gives us backstory on the Gekko Brothers, Jacob Fuller and his family, as well as showing what really happened to Jacob's wife.
The El Rey Network is still on Roku. I watch it every now and again.
I did not love the first season but trucked through and genuinely appreciated this full series run.
Every time I watch this I put it on for the crazy vampire action, but I swear each and every time I get so sucked into the first half that I forget the vampire stuff is coming. That is crazy writing right there!
Funny cuz us kids back then were raised on desperado and dusk till dawn from Rodriquez then just a few years later the newer gen were raised on spy kids, what a contrast : p
I was raised on both. Born in 92, I saw resident evil opening show at 12am, I was 10 at the time with my dad.
Ikr? He gave us El Mariachi, Desperado, From Dusk till Dawn & The Faculty & then he gave us the Spy Kids movies, then years later Sin City, Planet Terror & the Machete films, his films are always fun. Very underrated director IMHO.
Rodriguez did a 3 season tv show based on this movie. Took different choices from the movie, but explored the lore and monsters. It was really cool
I love that there is an influx of reactors FINALLY reacting to this awesome movie!! I always like to see people’s reactions to the big twist (as long as it wasn’t spoiled before seeing it lol). I was too young to see this in the 90s, but now I’m my 30’s, it’s still my favorite. ❤
So, Fred Williamson, the "A Team" guy, started out as an NFL player, turned to acting. Bit roles in a number of shows (Star Trek, for example). Leading character in the movie version of MASH. Got cast in a lot of Blaxspliotation movies in the 70s. In the 80s, he headed over to Italy and ended up in lead roles in a lot of low budget Italian action films before heading back to have minor roles throughout the last few decades. 134 roles and counting.
Never actually was on the A Team. 1 episode of Fantasy Island though.
Fred was not in the A Team, you're thinking of Mr. T. Understandable, since they look alike.
The Hammer.
When I first saw this movie I thought it was a crime thriller, imagine my absolute shock when it turned into a vampire movie! No other movie I have ever seen has taken such a massive leap from one genre to another.
Check out the movies The Faculty(1998), The Lost Boys(1987), Species(1995), and Jackie Brown(1997).
As soon as I saw the thumbnail, I knew they were gonna have a fun time with it & hope that they check out The Faculty (1998) next.
If they loved FDTD, they'll love The Faculty but they have to see the Body Snatchers movies first because The Faculty talks about that plot/storyline.
Pretty sure it was Seth who burned someone alive at the beginning of the movie, that counts as killing someone 😂
Love how the twist is vampires of all things 🤣
Tara - Dang girl!
Aron - I was thinking the same...
It's the movie that really does take you on a trip you never thought you'd be on, and does make you think each time you see a scene, "How the F--k did they do it so freaking well to mess with me so frighteningly perfectly?"
Tarantino picked the most fun character to play, definitely!! This role is every actor's dream.
"This bar is for bikers and truckers only": If they only knew that he was trying to spare them, hahahhaa...
When the Queen Vampire is stalking the room, she is smelling out the people looking for the one that reeks the most of evil. That is why she hones in on him first. I think these vampires have a moral code, and that is why they only pick bikers and truckers hahahaa!!! Not saying that bikers and truckers are generally shady people, buuut....
Fun fact: Cheech plays three characters in this movie!
fun fact robert got the idea for this film after watchin predator (1987) in theaters opening night , as the film starts as an action film and end ups beeing a sci fie creature feature slasher , he loved the idea of two diffrent parts of a film and mixed this gangster road movie with a vampire splatter horror , he also ended up producing a predator film himself later called predators (2010)
This is another one of those movies that never gets old
Also Salma Hayek 🤤🤤🤤, never been so jealous of a snake
"He's gonna burn him alive!"
Tara looking horrified, Aaron all excited... 😅
My friend showed me this when I was in 7th grade not telling me anything about it.
It scared the shit out of me, but I have grown to love it over the years.
I love sharing it with people just to see their reactions to the twist.
YES! I didn't know whether or not they knew about the genre switch til it happened! 😂their shock was so satisfying 😂😅 28:00
It's easily one of my favorite movies and one of the most fun movies watched.Also, george clooney is so damn cool in this movie
Ikr? I feel the same way, Seth Gecko's still my favorite character he's ever played, he was so badass & had so many great quotes. "Everybody be cool, *YOU* be cool!" is a classic.
I love how Seth and Jacob don’t like each other, but are willing to put their differences aside to fight a common enemy. In this case, vampires. I also love Seth’s speech to Jacob about how he’s their best chance against the vamps, and how Jacob accepts that responsibility.
Plus, there’s something funny about Jacob censoring himself.
Y'alls reaction to the Salma Hayek scene and then to the reveal that this was a vampire movie was HILARIOUS and ICONIC!!!
🤣🤣🤣 💀💀💀
16:53 Goodfellas was not a Tarantino movie 🤣🤣
and Harvey Keitel wasn't in it either lol
They completely got any Goodfellas references completely wrong. That was a Martin Scorsese film. That was Joe Pesci in that movie and not Harvey Keitel. LOL
Great stuff guys... This film has possibly one of the fiercest "flip mode" U turns in cinema history....
Love this reaction! Exactly the way I first saw this movie. At a friend's house, and he put it on and told me nothing about it. That twist is MIND BLOWING when you have no idea it's coming 😂😂
One of the best twists in movie history if you ask me and I love showing people this movie, they all have different reactions
The psychos line is my favorite line of any movie
I remember when I first watched this movie I had no idea what to expect I definitely wasn’t expecting a vampire flick, and I damn sure didn’t count on seeing Salma Hayek put a foot in Tarantino’s mouth but knowing him it makes perfect sense such a weird, fun, unhinged ride. I also think this was the first time I saw Clooney play like a bad guy but I thought he was so cool and so bad ass. Please do DEATH PROOF NEXT!🙌🏾
Clooneys tat is probably one of the most famous fiction tat i know and wanted.
Clooney's never been better than this - so damn cool.
YES! I LOVE THIS MOVIE. And I love when people have never heard or seen this... I put it own with ZERO idea about it and see their reactions! The sudden vampire twist makes this movie 10x better. One of my favorite movies. We don't get movies like this anymore 😢😢😢😢
HELL! YES! This is one of my all-time favorite films. I saw this in the theater (as part of a double feature with Don't Be A Menace...) and it was one of the best moviegoing experiences I've had. I bought the soundtrack and recently, I bought the out-of-print published screenplay. Before the film was released on home video, a friend got me a bootleg VHS. I used to run it on my TV in the background, while I did homework or art. I know this movie backwards and forwards, inside and out. The feature-length documentary, Full Tilt Boogie is also a ton of fun. They went through a lot to get this movie made and I'm so happy it's getting the love and recognition it deserves.
What a duo of a double feature 🤯🤯
@@emosam07 Both from Dimension Films. That's why. :)
"...I'm gonna turn this place into The f**king Wild Bunch..."
The Wild Bunch (1969) is a legendary film and one of Tarantino's favorites. Incrediblly violent but unforgettable. The final shootout beats the finales of so many films that came out decades later.
Whipguy is Tom Savini the greatest Makeup Artist and Greg Nicoteros Teacher
Lately, it seems that Tara’s metaphorical soul is dying little by little every time she does the “ring the bell” bit haha :p
I noticed it to. Love Tara. I hopes she's well.
Someone should do a compilation to see her slowing dying more and more 🥲
She needs to bring it back as it started and just belt it with no regretss
@@davidfrost901 Same here. I hope she's doing well & in good spirits.
To be fair our sweet and lovely Tara was sick for a while it seems like she’s trying to get back into the swing of things, I hope she feels better I miss her high energy.
Trip thing about this movie, no matter how many times I've seen it in jus realizing that Trejo and Cheech both actually tried to save them. Twice they told them they weren't welcome but who they were as criminals wouldn't allow that to happen. Damn
Also that body guitar scene😂
They needed truck drivers so they could cover up the disappearences easier.
How yall got to this point not knowing anything about this movie is awesome so yall were truly surprised when it turned
"this is turning into a demented Star Trek" lol - my exact reaction in the cinema when it turned into a vampire movie 😆😆😆
28:06 I love watching their brains completely melt as the movie reveals itself.
You guys should react to Wishmaster. That horror film from 1997 is such an underrated gem in the world of horror with one of the most one of a kind unique horror premises for this spooky month
That was an uber cute reaction. I've always loved FDTD. 99.9% of us knew it was a Vampire film when it was released...The cuteness factor comes from when the Bar locals transform and u 2 are like..."Are they're Aliens???.. They're Demons!!!, ,,,,,Oh ,,,wait ,,they're Vampires." Glad you enjoyed!
The sheriff whose acting Tara is admiring in the opening scene is the wonderful Michael Parks, who also played the sheriff investigating The Bride's shooting in Kill Bill 1 and the very distinguished Mexican gentleman who points Uma Thurman towards Bill in Kill Bill 2, along with something like 100 other film and TV roles.
I love this movie. Best line: were they psychos? No, psychos don't explode when sun hits them, idc how crazy they are. 😂
That line NEVER FAILS to crack me up.
@misschiefmanager6670 same. Perfect words and delivery.
Quintin Feetatino
some know him as quentin f*ckinp*do after the comments he made on Howard Stern show defending Roman Polanski and blaming the 13 yr old "party girl".
Bad word play
Try saying Quentin Taranfeetno, rolls off the tongue a lot better, and is closer to the real pronunciation
You’re welcome 🤷🏻♂️
Quitin' Totinos.....
I've developed a serious addiction to pizza rolls...
“That was a cool effect, but it was so fast.” That’s what she said.
I love seeing peoples reactions to this movie. Half the movie just seems like an ordinary action film until the vampires come in. You guys definitely had the best reaction I've seen so far.
Gonna show my age real quick, but we rented this from Blockbuster and we had no idea what it was about. We were digging it as like a thriller action kinda movie then the genre switch took us by total surprise 😂 it was nuts.
What is a blockbooster? Is that some type of drug from the 1920's?! 😂😂😂🫂
Now you guys need to watch both Grindhouse movies, back to back!
Planet Terror and then Deathproof!
Robert did a zombie/action film with Rose McGowan and Josh Brolin, followed up with a car chase/thriller from Quentin staring Rosario Dawson, Kurt Russell and Zoe Bell.
The person that plays Sex Machine is Tom Savini. Most know for his work behind the camera with practical effects in the Romero Zombie movies and Friday the 13th Parts 1 and 4. He a legend of the horror genre and it’s really cool to see him in front of the camera this time. He’s very funny in the role
There's a three season long tv series based on this film produced by Robert Rodriguez that takes the films story and then expands further, adding more vampire lore, and making some interesting changes to some of the main characters stories. It's well worth a watch.
It's always funny to see the reaction to the Vampire reveal. No one expected it first watch.🤣
This is by far my favorite movie reaction to DATE! My god, I enjoy this. Keep it coming!
Watching From Dusk Til Dawn with your partner is insane
I'm so glad this didn't get spoiled for them cause the genre switch up was crazy
I absolutely love watching peoples reactions to this movie. No one is ever prepared for suddenly snake vampires!
If you guys love this collab of Quentin Tarentino and Rober Rodriguez, then you'll love Death Proof and Planet Terror. It's a double feature, but with all the horror and violence packed into 2 b-movie type films.
“where is this movie going” HAHAHAHA you are not prepared and I love it
Glad to see that you had a blast watching this one! I certainly love it a lot myself. It’s not quite a perfect movie but I think it’s a great movie and just really entertaining. I love the acting, script, characters, dialogue, horror, vampire elements, and the different change in tone of this movie. Honestly, this is amongst Tarantino’s best work.
This movie has some of the greatest one liners of all time. George Clooney was brilliant in it.
3:02 I have no idea who this actor is but I’ve always loved his part 😂he was being so genuine about not scratching.
It's John Hawkes.
I love this movie. Thankful for the reaction 💜💜
For more lore, Robert Rodríguez made a series explaining and adding to the lore even to why Richie was crazy. The first season is the movie and the seasons after does have Kate join Seth afterwards.
Absolutely loved your reactions to THE twist!
I was 8 when this came out. So it was on HBO when I was 9... I decided to watch it alone in my bedroom... my 9 year old brain broke at that twist! 😂😂😂
“what were they like psychos?”
