Series creator and showrunner Rodriguez, who also directed the pilot and other episodes, stated the original film is 'one of the favorite movies that I did in the past with Quentin Tarantino and one that people still ask us about today.' He added, 'There was so much I wanted to explore in that movie that I didn't get to. Drug lord Don Carlos reroutes them to a strip club populated by snakelike people that all must fight for food to survive until dawn.Ĭast and characters Main cast Actorįrom Dusk till Dawn is the first scripted original series on Robert Rodriguez's El Rey network. Heading for the Mexico border pursued by Gonzalez, the Geckos encounter former minister Jacob Fuller and his family, whom they take hostage by commandeering the Fullers' RV. In this supernatural crime series, Seth Gecko and his violent, unpredictable brother, Richard 'Richie' Gecko, are wanted by the FBI and Texas Ranger Freddie Gonzalez after a bank robbery left several people, including policemen and Gonzalez's mentor Texas Ranger Earl McGraw, dead. El Rey Network ceased all operations on December 31, 2020, making a revival of the show unlikely. While the series was never officially announced as cancelled, Deadline Hollywood reported that the actors were released from their contracts on October 31, 2016. On October 26, 2015, it was renewed for a third season, which aired from September 6 to November 1, 2016.

It was produced by FactoryMade Ventures in association with Miramax and executive produced by Rodriguez. Outside the United States and Latin America, the series is marketed as a Netflix original. The series premiered on March 11, 2014, on Rodriguez's newly launched El Rey Network. The series also references the Popol Vuh, drawing on its rich, mythological history and, in particular, on the legend of the Hero Twins Hunahpú and Xbalanqué to add greater depth to the backstories and to fully flesh out the characters of the show's protagonists, the Gecko Brothers, Seth and Richie. The series adds to the tone of the film, with new characters and backstories, while expanding the snake creatures' Mesoamerican mythology. It forms part of the franchise of film, direct-to-video, comic and cult following of From Dusk till Dawn, expanding on the chronicles of the Gecko Brothers, Seth and Richie The Fuller family and Santanico Pandemonium. Even if you are not a fan of such a genre, it is still worth checking out.From Dusk till Dawn: The Series is an American horror television series developed by Robert Rodriguez. I highly recommend this show if you were a fan of the movies or if you like vampire related shows in general. The show wasn't as violent as the movie but like the movie there was some well written dialogue and humour throughout.

I hope one day they all work together again as the chemistry they had was great. Everyone who was cast did an AMAZING job. But oh well, sometimes things must come to an end. It was the most popular show on that channel at the time. A lot of people were angry when they found out it wasn't renewed. I do not know why they stopped making the series. Even though it ended they did leave it open in a way that they could do another season down the track. It seemed rushed but it was back on track. Thankfully the third season picked the pace back up. It was entertaining enough and fun to watch but it did seem to drag on for a few episodes. I thought the second series went downhill a bit. Very familiar to the movie but with a lot of differences. The vampire mythology has been changed from the movie and has been expanded on more in the television show. This is not a sequel to the film but rather a remake in television series form featuring the same characters from the movie. And it went for 3 seasons but it stopped. Based on the FROM DUSK TILL DAWN movie from 1996.
