    This is horror with a wink and a nod to drive-in theatres and sweaty back seats. This is how it's done.

    A deliriously trashy, exuberantly vulgar, lavishly appointed exploitation picture, this weird combo of road-kill movie and martial-arts vampire gorefest is made to order for the stimulation of teenage boys.

    Rodriguez's film is a high-octane fun-house ride with only one speed: sick-making.

    A mildly entertaining movie that starts out like a Tarantino movie and then quickly turns into a horror b-movie.

    Two halves of different movies spliced together with total disregard for continuity. The first half is entertaining in its Tarantino expect-the-unexpected content, but the second half treats it as mere disposable prologue, making the entire project disposable - apparently what the filmmakers set out to do.
