Film 4 now, great movie. :D

Anyone else watching it, lots of Vampire movies on lately, watched Bram Stoker's Dracula last night, Keanu Reeves was a little hard to take but it fared better after all these years. This is one of Clooney's better performances, seemed like he enjoyed it - even Tarantino acts, ha.

Vampire lovers unite.

    That reminds me, i missed Cronos. I must watch it.

    I prefer zombies tbh, Twilight did nothing for the reputation of vamps.

    Not to sound like a racist but I f**king hated the Chinese kid in Dusk Till Dawn

    Was so glad when he bit the dust

    Was lucky enough, years ago, to be one of those who just stumbled upon this movie having no foreknowledge whatsoever. The "twist" was utterly mind-blowing at the time, right up my street as well. Never caught any of the sequels though, naturally assumed they would be awful.

    The best part is Salma Hayek.

    They weren't too bad actually as long as you don't consider them sequels, more cash ins. One was about a bank robbery and the third I think was a western, which was odd.

    Agreed, they are the kinda movies you would expect on the horror channel. Decent stories but you know what to expect with very limited budgets.

    Mmmm Salma Hayek.


    I was 17 when I saw this at the cinema. Knew it was a vampire film but remember thinking, 'When the hell are the vamps getting here? This is just a bank robbery. have I got the right film?'

    Clooney is brilliant. "What do you think I want you mean old bastard? I want a f*cking room."
    "Psychos? Is that what they looked like to you? They were vampires. Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits them. I don't give a f*ck how crazy they are!"

    And Sex Machine's penis gun had everyone in the cinema roaring.

    Me too - used to love watching it later with other peeps who had no idea too

    The cool thing is, it's really only a vampire movie for the final third.

    WTF have you seen the film? Tarantino does not die pretty soon he dies when the Vamps start kicking off in the bar. That is a fair length during the film. Film gets thumbs up from me. Tarantino dies unexpectedly, the twist when thinking it was just another gangster film. :D
