If you find it is not your bag .. and I say that because I seem to remember you said you liked "From Dusk to Dawn," and if you would prefer people turning into gruesome zombies and things better than just am amazing flick.. switch to "Planet Terror." It is one of the Grindhouse Trilogy of "Death Proof," "Planet Terror" and "Machete."
While not vampires it is still a whole lot more like "From Dusk to Dawn" than "Death Proof" is, with people turning into hideous zombies eating the uninfected people and a hot chick, Rose McGowan, who has her leg eaten off and it is replaced with a full automatic weapon, which never runs out of ammo and that I can never figure out how she fires it since she only points it, but she wipes out zombies with it by the dozen... but I'd still suggest sitting through "Death Proof." It's worth it .. and don't turn it off the second you see "The End." There is a short bit more that caps off the flick nicely.
Oh .. one little warming ... both films are tributes to the old B movies of the early 60's and at times they are intentionally grainy and the sound will skip and there is intentional bad editing etc. But they are well made ... just intentionally well made to appear to not be well made and low budget.
just the way the movies are shot and directed. I'm really not a fan of action. but the way the 2 directors we talk about direct are definitely catchy. guy ritchie being the superior imo
