Cinefilles, it's time for a camp-out! And no, we ain't talkin' s'mores, sing-a-longs and psycho killers (although, they may very well make questionable individual appearances). We're talking about getting in touch with your guilty pleasure zone. So join us as Emily (our resident camp connoisseur) leads you through one of the best of the worst movies of all-time. It's gonna be awesome—and terrible!—all at the same time.
Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's not-quite-forgotten, but not-quite revered "action extravaganza" (Ebert's words via my DVD case, not mine) From Dusk Till Dawn may have come out sixteen years ago today, but I think would be quite at home in January 2012.
Okay, check it. The 1996 horror comedy stars recent Golden Globe winner and Best Actor Oscar contender George Clooney (who you might remember was my reason for December's tribute to Return to Horror High), and The Firm's leading lady and Twit-disturber Juliette Lewis. Also, like this week's new Underworld film, it features a kickass female heroine (Lewis) and some seriously batshit creatures of the night. And, despite his somewhat questionable taste in modern cinema, we're always itching for more Tarantino (Django Unchained is already our favourite Christmas present).
I hope you're hungry, fellow lovers of all things equally awful and awesome. Cause you're about to feast your eyes on a buffet of blood, bikers, Salma Hayek's boobs and one hell of a fiery arm tattoo.
WHY IT'S TERRIBLE:
