From Dusk till Dawn is a 1996 American action horror film directed by Robert Rodriguez and written by Quentin Tarantino from a concept and story by Robert Kurtzman. Starring Harvey Keitel, George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino, Ernest Liu, and Juliette Lewis, the plot follows a pair of American criminal brothers (Clooney and Tarantino) who take a family as hostages (Keitel, Liu, and Lewis) to cross into Mexico, but ultimately find themselves trapped in a saloon frequented by vampires.

The film was released on January 17, 1996, and received mixed reviews from critics, who described the film as well-made if overly violent. After enjoying financial success at the box office, From Dusk till Dawn has since become a cult film and spawned a media franchise of sequel films, a video game, and other media adaptations.

I have watched this a few times with people who have not seen the movie before - I love seeing their reactions when the movie goes into vampire overdrive - I always seem to get a laugh as it is quite unexpected.

My movie listings lead with the DIRECTOR: followed by the actual name of the director movie title and the actors. The cast is important but it is the director who lives with all aspects of getting the movie to the big screen by guiding the players, the writers, financiers, and technicians to the point where they have financial success at the box office. The director must be passionate, motivated, and committed, not just directing on the set. I grew up following directors and their output for entertainment. The director often needs to be involved with the writing process to make sense of what is being presented on the screen.
