The intention behind the surprising transformation
As those who have seen it know, "From Dusk Till Dawn" is an escape drama about the gekko brothers, Seth (George Clooney) and Richie (Quentin Tarantino), who have committed a number of robberies and murders from the beginning. I will draw. Seth was in prison, but with Richie's help he escaped. He causes trouble one after another at a liquor store where he stops to buy a map and a motel where he takes hostages, then hijacks the camper of a pastor, Fuller (Harvey Keitel), who was traveling with his daughter and son, and aims to cross the Mexican border.
The story progresses in a noir tone, with flashy gunfight action, the suspense of being interrogated in a car in which a hostage is taken, and humor added by Richie's short-tempered Richie's crazy words and interactions with Seth, who is being manipulated. However, just over an hour into the movie, as the group is once again causing a ruckus at a topless bar near the border, the genre suddenly changes to vampire horror!
The film's script was written by Tarantino, based on an original idea by special make-up artist Robert Kurtzman. This is the collaboration between the two, following Rodriguez's previous film Desperado (1995), in which Tarantino starred, and the omnibus film Four Rooms (1995), which Tarantino called on and Rodriguez directed the third of the four episodes. This is the third work.
Regarding the structure that suddenly switches to horror in the middle, Rodriguez says in the DVD ` `Full Tilt Boogie: The Making From Dusk Till Dawn' ', ``There are no horror scenes in the first half of the movie. "You can learn more about it, and your feelings for it deepen. That's why you can share your fears." Tarantino also said this. "There's something similar to the horror of Stephen King's novels. He's very good at portraying characters...That's why you can naturally empathize with them. He pushes these characters into Inferno." The audience can't expect a vampire to show up. They feel exactly the same as the characters."
