Overall Bram Stoker's because it really showed what he had written originally and how he portrayed Dracula and then all the cheesy Hollywood versions became pointless; still fun but pointless.

From Dusk Till Dawn after that. I love the way this was written and directed. Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez had worked together before but this is their best collaborative work. First you get a crime story that only Quentin can tell. Robert could probably do the same but Quentin being well Quentin takes the story to new levels.

I mean how many times have you been holding a family at gunpoint and think the hot one asks you to "eat" something...and then ask her about it later only to find out she never said that. Oh...and his character wears a retainer( I wore one too...in second grade and since I apparently grind my teeth I still wear one.)

Back to the story. I can bet Robert comes to Quentin like this:

RR: "Salma is on board"

QT: "I'll write her in."

RR: "Cool...she will makes this movie money!"

QT: "How do you feel about me drinking hard liquor off her left foot?"

RR: "If you really want to suck her toes that badly..."

QT: "Oh I do...I really want her too! Then I want her to orgasm over my blood and bite me hard!"

RR: "Can we get back to writing?"

QT: "Is the foot fetish scene in?"

RR: "Yeah...now finish the story."

Robert thinks to himself "This Quentin guy is a perv...but for some reason his stuff works."

QT: "I become a vampire! But George Clooney drives a stake in my heart. They kill the vampires...The End. Oh...can we say "Does this look like "Dead Vampire Storage?"

RR: " No! That joke was really offensive originally in Pulp Fiction even though it was not vampires needing storage. Still funny in a bad way but it doesn't work here. So who lives and who dies?"

QT: "Well Juliette Lewis lives because she is hot(and I wrote her character in Natural Born Killers) and so does George Clooney just because he deserves to get away from TV."

And after all that on January 19th 1996 "From Dusk Till Dawn" was released to theaters. On a personal note I still own the VHS release of this movie. The DVD version I own has a running commentary with Quentin Tarantino(RARE!) and everyone else(Robert Rodriguez and friends) Quentin Tarantino generally does not make a commentary on his own movies. At the time this DVD came out it was his first commentary. When Inglourious Basterds comes to DVD I would really KILL for a commentary.
