In this
action-
horror flick from director
Robert Rodriguez and screenwriter
Quentin Tarantino,
Tarantino stars with
George Clooney as a pair of bad-to-the-bone brothers named
Seth and
Richie Gecko. After a string of robberies that left a river of blood in the Geckos' wake, the sadistic siblings head to Mexico to live the good life. To get over the border, they kidnap
Jacob Fuller, a widowed preacher played by
Harvey Keitel, and his two children,
Kate (
Juliette Lewis) and
Scott (
Ernest Liu). Once south of the border, the quintet park their RV at a rough-and-tumble trucker bar called The Titty Twister, where
Seth and
Richie are supposed to meet a local thug. After a couple of drinks, they realize that they're not in a typical bar, as the entire place begins to teem with vicious, blood-sucking vampires. With the odds stacked greatly against them, the Fullers and Geckos team together in hopes of defeating the creatures of the night. Makeup artist
Tom Savini and
blaxploitation star
Fred Williamson appear as allies against the vampires, and
Cheech Marin fills three different roles.
