SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.
hellholehorror Thank god that this was not shot from the point-of-view of inanimate objects like the dial of a safe. This is just shot from the point-of- view of a historic writer who gets lost in Mexico. If you have seen the previous two films then you have already worked out that it was vampires that played the highest contributing part in him getting lost. As you might have guessed, our little adventure is very predictable. Having said that though this is far closer to the original than the second movie! That is a good thing by the way. Shame that the Titty Twister did not feature highly as that had a fantastic co-starring role in the first vampire excursion. The violence is strong but not prolonged. They just kill someone in gory detail and then cut away quickly to something else. The whole final battle with the vampires is sadly unimpressive leaving room for mockery. The comedy of the subtitles made the film for me not that I would want to see it again soon.
Baghdaddy So the first point I have to make is...how is Razor Charlie (Trejo) around in all these movies!!Anyway, onto the movie. The plot is set 100 years prior to the film's predecessors, as an outlaw is about to be hanged he is saved by a young girl dreaming to be his protégé. Johnny Madrid (Leonardi) captures Esmeralda (Celi) as he escapes, and continues to flee.On the way, he comes across Ambrose Pierce (Parks) whilst attempting a stagecoach robbery, and from there the scene is set once they all stop off at a bar in order to take some rest!The acting is, once again, not that great, but the story is slightly more thought-out than its prequel and set in a different time period. The action is still awesome, with the survivors being forced to work together in order to survive. The music is apt, based on the Latino theme, whilst the cinematography is decent, but of course the vampires look quite hideous. I guess that was the actors intent, but I was hoping they would look more menacing then just pure ugly! Furthermore, the sex scenes within the movie are still pretty damn good, no one can complain when an orgy is taking place at a bar! Finally, my final negative point is the randomness of their escape, which definitely was too fairy tale for me!Overall, I still enjoyed this film and I am a big fan of the franchise. I would like to see more thought put into the acting, and the make- up of the vampires, but at least this was a deeper delve into the explanation as to just how the Titty Twister came to be!
wes-connors This prequel to the first "From Dusk Till Dawn" (1996) returns to the story structure of the first film in the series, with less satisfying results. We begin with the death, by firing squad, of US Civil War hero and author Ambrose Bierce (Michael Parks). He is killed, in Mexico, by Pancho Villa. Inexplicably undead, he next witnesses the hanging of handsome outlaw Johnny Madrid (Marco Leonardi), who escapes death with "The Hangman's Daughter" Esmeralda (Ara Celi) on horseback...They eventually meet up with frustrated new husband John Newlie (Lennie Loftin) and his frigid Christian bride Mary (Rebecca Gayheart)...The characters will unite and bite in a vampire bar, as the "Dusk Till Dawn" custom dictates. There are some nicely-staged scenes, and some choppy ones. P.J. Pesce does keep it moving. However, there really isn't a new story here. An indeterminate beginning and ending doesn't help. Some modern dialog could be coincidence, but the impression of Robert De Niro from "Taxi Driver" (1976) suggests a character is time traveling. Perhaps this is a set-up for "From Dusk Till Dawn 4". **** From Dusk Till Dawn 3: The Hangman's Daughter (10/31/99) P.J. Pesce ~ Marco Leonardi, Ara Celi, Michael Parks, Lennie Loftin
RickHarvey From dusk till dawn 3: the Hangman's daughter, it basically a remake of of the first From dusk to dawn. The difference being that it based 100 years in the past . What starts out as a western ends in a gory vampire fight. Just like Crime thriller turned Gory vampire fight. After the very disappointing sequel, the producers decided to make a prequel in which it tells the story of how Santanico Pandemonium came to be. Is this story a good one? Well it can certainly hold your attention for the whole length of the film.If there one positive to take out from this film then it the fact that it has the same feel as the original. The second film failed due to fact that it was a totally different vampire film. The script is average, the acting is good enough and the direction is good. The shootouts are well executed and the effects are again decent. if anything, the woman who played Reece was poor.Overall this a enjoyable film, nothing spectacular but after the very bad sequel, i guess you don't care.
