From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money

Making a sequel to the original From Dusk Till Dawn seems impossible, and this joint shouldn't be seen as a sequel. The only things featured in the original is a few actors and nothing else. Anyways, the movie has many funny B-movie shots, overdone one would say, and it seem as if the director Scott Spiegel is tryin' too hard to make it like his friend Sam Raimi's Evil Dead films, including cameo by Bruce Campbell. The acting is pretty bad, the plot is even worse, but still there's some quite good ideas. But it's only a made-for-video film, so I didn't have any expectations at all, even though From Dusk... being one of my all-time-favorite. It's actually impressive that Tarantino & Rodriguez even wanted to executive this movie.

Check it out, I'm on my way to rent the 3rd one... Peace Out!

The sequel to the first film From Dusk Till Dawn (1996) in which I am a huge fan. The first cult film is my favorite action vampire horror film. This sequel is an okay DTV movie bloody horror slasher film and I don't understand why this movie gets the hate for it but Part 3 The Hangman's Daughter get's better ratings. From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money is not near good as the first one, it is still a good horror movie in his own way, with excellent cast, diffrent story and a good FX effects, different ideas, it does have a good kills. It is underrated and unappreciated slaher horror sequel.

"Time to come with us, Buck, the bite ain't that bad. Bite my ass."

This film it self suffers from mayor problem issues it is not as good as the first one. It is a step down from the first movie. The problems with the film I have is: The film heavily borrows things from the first movie. This guy Luther Heggs (Duane Whitaker) stops by Titty Twister bar in Mexico open in which in the first movie finale it was burned down. So how was Titty Twister bar open so fast in short time. Danny Trejo is again as barman Razor Charlie and he acts the same as he did in the first movie. Razor Charlie was killed in the first movie so what does he doing in here. He brings a vampire and asks his fellow if that was the guy that shot him. That was all in the first movie. The dialogues could have been better. We could got at least good sexy girl in this movie but there was no good actress in here. The pacing in this movie is slow and the movie could have been better. Is this movie a sequel or prequel to the first movie or what. To me the plot is confusing, with plot holes and why vampires are robbing a bank and stealing the money. This movie has not any good soundtracks like the first movie had. Where did Danny Trejo disappeared what happened to him, it was not explaind. Those are main problems and isues I have with this film.

Here is what the movie works for me: you have an excellent cast Robert Patrick from Terminator 2: Judgment Day he played T-1000, from The X-Files he played FBI Special Agent John Doggett he was in other movies like Zero Tolerance, Decoy, Hong Kong '97 and other action movies. I like the guy, I am huge Robert Patrick fan. He did a terrific job in The X-Files in Season 8 I love that he is the lead guy in here and he is the hero. Robert did an excellent performence he is a likable guy and he is different from Seth Gecko. Buck Bowers is not a stone cold killer like was George Clooney, he is an ex convict and a bank robber but not a killer, he did not kill anyone so yes i like his character.

I love the first one to death, it is my favorite action film I like this one. The other actors are: Bo Hopkins as Texas Ranger Otis Lawson he did a fine job been the good guy I love his character. Kudos too Bo Hopkins. Muse Watson from Prison Break Season 1 and I Know What You Did Last Summer, he did a good job I like him. Raymond Cruz is a bad-ass as Jesus. The guy is really underrated actor he is in all kind of movies: Under Siege, Broken Arrow, The Rock and so on. I love the action sequence in which Jesus slashes a vampire woman's head off and he jums out of a window excellent stunt. Than we have Tiffani-Amber Thiessen from Beverly Hills 90210 and Bruce Campbell from The Evil Dead trilogy in here in a cameo opening scene. There is this guy I never heard of James Parks son of Michael Parks who playas Deputy Edgar McGraw son of Earl McGraw that Gecko brothers in the first movie shot his father dead in the first movie.

Good acting and direction by Scott Spiegel he did a good job directing this sequel from Dimension. Okay music theme from Joseph Stanley Williams but not better than Graeme Revell's music from the first film. You have some good kills, a nice action. 4 Vampiers are shooting with machine guns on SWAT Team and kills them all. You have explosins practical effects done for real. You have a wonderful finale in which a face-off between the survivors and the vampires takes place. Buck, Otis and Edgar confront 4 vampires and they fight for their survival in which it is a bad-ass. I love happy ending, wonderful finale. This is an okay stand alone action horror movie with a twist, not near good as the first movie that I love to death but okay. Quentin Tarantino was excutive producer of this movie would really like to see the TV series of the first movie.

OK. This is probably my guiltiest pleasure ever! The acting is extremely awful, and the movie is filled with immature draggings of the originals material. But still I like this movie. A cinescape reviewer wrote that some horror fans desperate for something new in the genre, may forgive the film for its problems. I think I'm probably one of those horror fans.

Its more entertaining than a lot of recent theatrical releases. I think the gore is great, and the Evil Dead qualities: Sam Raimi-ish camera angles (overdone), demon-like vampire deaths make this movie even more entertaining. I think its really a great cheeseball B-horror movie.

After hearing countless people tell me how crappy this movie is, and after reading tons of reviews that make it sound totally unbearable, I decided to watch it myself. You know what? They are all wrong. Most of the movie is at LEAST average direct-to-video work. Of course it isn't as good as the original, but this movie was just as gory, more action-packed, and had some very funny moments (they watched Mexican porno for a VERY long time in that motel room). I was not disappointed watching this movie, because I didn't take it seriously. I suggest you relax and give it a try, you'll laugh at how funny they tried to make this a good movie.

This movie was horrible. I couldn't believe how bad it was. I was expecting a great sequel to a great movie. But, I didn't get that. All I got was a terrible sequel with terrible acting, and terrible directing. Now don't get me wrong, I loved From Dusk till Dawn. In fact it's my favorite movie. But this can't even be compared to the first. It shouldn't even be associated with the first. Granted it didn't have the superb directing of Tarantino and Rodriguez, or the acting of Clooney, Tarantino, and Kietel. Bruce Campbell and Tiffani-Amber Thiessen were the only thing that made me keep watching. But they appeared for what, a whole five minutes. In fact I can't believe that Tarantino or Rodriguez had anything to do with this movie. Scott Spiegel, who is that?. Sorry Scott, your movie was TERRIBLE.
