I was watching the 'Full tilt boogie' documentary on the From Dusk till dawn dvd and in the credits one of the crew is credited as 'El Driver'.
...
For those of you scratching your heads, Elle Driver is the name of Daryl Hannah's character in Kill Bill.
I don't actually think what I've just written will amaze too many of you but it's kind of interesting never the less.
Also, did anyone else notice the similarities between FDTD and Assault on Precinct 13? They're very weak but they're there. Check Keitel's son's t shirt, and more importantly the whole 'being trapped inside a police station/strip bar while crazed gang members/vampires are trying to break in. I'm sure some little lines of dialogue are lifted from it too.
Anyway...leave me alone
