From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series (2014–2016)

Bloody Near Perfect

[10/10 · 24 July 2014]

Some people may come to see it as a deviation from the original but Rodriguez does a hell of a job bringing his vision into the present. This is exactly how a movie should go silver screen, this adaptation was all I could have hoped for.

Barring a few ham moments and glitches with the green screen shots this was perfectly done.

I liked DJ Cotrona as Seth Gecko. Fast talking and trying to stay sane. Holtz as a semi-psychopath was quite good too. Jake Busey is always good to see but the standout star here was Wilmer Valderama, so good to see him do something killer for a change.

The gecko Brothers ride again!

The FP (2011)

A serious shade of funny

[10/10 · 22 February 2014]

This movie was killer, over the top gangster slang...cheesy logic and lines that made you laugh despite the sheer ridiculous nature of it all...

Its a low budget film, but it makes me wish The Trosts could just get pushed by a big studio..

Its a little slow, but still entertaining. Brilliantly goofy while still maintaining tone. It creates the right atmosphere of dark ambiance, mixed in with the trailer trash vibe that creates a bad ass version of dance dance revolution... There is a strong absurd ideology perpetrated..

Watch this stuff. Its OG.
