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.

The third season 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 but was removed in November 2022. 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, and comics of From Dusk till Dawn, expanding on the chronicles of the Gecko Brothers, Seth and Richie The Fuller family and Santanico Pandemonium. For that, I give a solid seven.From Dusk till Dawn: The Series is an American horror television series developed by Robert Rodriguez. It's a bit like the scriptwriters lost their faith in their own imagination, to save it for the second season. The ending itself is a bit weak, because it is not to far from what we've already seen, but there is not a real climax before, what I would expect. The Pyramid under the bar as a maze does not really feel big inside, that is a missed occasion.

While the show noticeable builds a distance to the movie, it tries to keep story-wise some unnecessary strings tight, while strangely most of the weird humor (like Sheriff McGraw's time counting in the Pilot, a wonderful little sequence) gets lost over the time. Hayek for comparison of acting - it's a charisma thing. Weakest performance is from Eliza Gonzalez, but I will not recall S. Zane Holtz is here my best actor, although he loses a bit of intensity near to the end of the show, which is owed to the story. Of course, Don Johnson is a highlight (although I didn't recognize him instantly), but also is Robert Patrick.

Production values, from a TV perspective, are high, directing is solid, and acting is mostly very good. I would say it has got some shadows of Sin City, in a positive way. Of course it is still over-the-top horror-fantasy, and some of the old things are still there, but it feels much more grounded to earth and true-to-life thanks to the less flippant undertone. It seems like the story has been grown up with its creator. When people or monsters die, there's very little to laugh about. That may be disappointing for lovers of that genre, but this show takes its time to develop the story, and it takes itself seemingly serious. And fourth, it's not a Rodriguez/Tarantino Grindhouse parody. To add/resize the Carlos character was a very good and well elaborated idea. It's a ritual, and the arrival of the Gecko brothers isn't by accident but planned long beforehand. They do their feasting, but it's not that simple. Third, the Vamps have much more background than before. Second, the atmosphere is thicker because there is more foreplay near and behind the Mexican border (until dusk).

mad brother relationship, which couldn't be farther from what it actually is in this new show. First, Richie's character is much deeper than before, although Zane Holtz plays the psychopath in the first few episodes very convincingly, so I did mistakenly think it is going to be a rehash of the cool brother vs.

The new show, created by Roberto Rodriguez himself, is for me a big improvement of the original movie, in many ways. Now, about 18 years later, I gave it another try because of this new show, and I liked it a bit more, but felt that it has aged a lot since. The Grindhouse culture wasn't something I learned to love or hate where I grew up, it simply wasn't present.

First to say, I didn't like the 1996 movie very much, when it came out, for several reasons.
