    From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money

    ★★★

    I’d been led to believe these sequels were worthless pieces of crap so never watched this until now. And I’m pleasantly surprised at how much fun I had with this. It has a decent blend of action, horror and comedy. Laughed a lot throughout at this criminal ensemble led by Robert Patrick. Muse Watson was my favourite character as rodeo clown cowboy safecracker, his quips were brilliant.

    Ken says “Let them fight” and I say “lets watch them fight, motherfucker!” It constantly shows us a glimpse of Big G and then poof it cuts away. Giving me severe kaiju blue balls. I understand they were going for Jaws in how late Bruce the shark appears in that film. But after a certain point it bordered on the silly over  how they try to obfuscate Godzilla. 

    I used to have disdain for this but giving it a chance…
