From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money (1999)
What Did You Expect?
For what it was, a sequel to an offbeat genre mixing gore-fest, "Texas Blood Money" served its purpose. Keep the action going and mix in a few tasteless jokes and you have a modern day, straight to video, exploitation flick. I suppose what made me laugh more than the inept fx and semi-amusing dialogue is the fact that people would rent this thinking it was going to be anything close to the original. Robert Patrick? C'mon, follow the clues people. Yes I enjoyed it. No, I didn't expect much. Yes I will be renting "From Dusk Till Dawn 3."
Shadow Creature (1995)
shadow creature is a gory ham-fest, waiting for cult recognition
I recently spoke with director Jim Gribbons. He mentioned that the script was in constant re-writing, and that the original director had to bail due to well, let's just say he had some problems! promoting him from DP. It was shot mainly in Buffalo NY with some stock footage from Cleveland. Buffalo State and various down town locations were used. It was released theatrically in France and has done well in Japan. I rented it at Block Buster, so maybe yours carries it too. Although there is no nudity in the film, rumor is that it does exist, maybe it'll turn up on a hidden dvd track sometime.
