From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money

A T-1000 recovered from a bath in molten steel, Maynard recovered from Butch's samurai sword attacks, and possibly even drug-affected African Americans equipped with soldering tools and double-lever instruments, along with Woody Harrelson's younger brother and the eternally Mexican Raymond Cruz, who performs push-ups in erotic scenes. The lineup preparing for a match and subsequent transfer to the Titty Twister Vampires might look good on paper, but it’s as stale as Chango filmed two days ago. The shots from behind the gums and other various camera placement experiments come across as awkward as those yellow contact lenses of the rampaging vampires. The sun has risen over Scott Spiegel's film, and even Dick Dale’s surf rock can't overshadow it. (03/06/2024)

From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money is the kind of sequel you don't really want to see. There aren't good characters here, there aren't good lines, there's no humor or tension, and in the end, there aren't even good special effects, just those that keep repeating and are overall quite boring. It's a shame because the whole story around the Titty Twister had much greater potential than what was shown in this film. Ignoring the ending of the first movie is a tremendous bit of cowardice.
