Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })From Dusk Till Dawn: the Series is a horror television series based on the 1996 cult movie From Dusk Till Dawn. It premiered on March 11, 2014 as one of the headliners of Robert Rodriguez's El Rey Network.Like the movie it is based on, the series centers on two brothers, Seth Gecko (D.J. Cotrona) and Richard “Richie” Gecko (Zane Holtz), professional criminals on the run from the authorities after a disastrous bank robbery, who are trying to make their way to safe haven across the border in Mexico. Along the way they take a family hostage: former minister Jacob Fuller (Robert Patrick), his daughter Katie Fuller (Madison Davenport) and son Scott Fuller (Brandon Soo Hoo).However, things are complicated by supernatural forces at play that have taken an interest in the Geckos, and seem to be leading them to a fateful confrontation.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The show ran for three seasons before unofficially ending on November 1, 2016note the date of the season three finale, after the cast were released from their contracts the day prior. There was a brief moment where the show was considered for a fourth season on Netflix, but things fell through.

comment
Darker and Edgier: Surprisingly so, since the original was pretty damn dark to begin with. But whereas the movie had a general campy, quirky tone to it, the series is pretty damn bleak from the get go. One example: In the original Pastor Jacob's wife died in an accident a few months ago. In the series, Pastor Jacob caused the accident because his mentally depressed wife attempted to open her door while the car was moving and they were in the car to begin with because the wife took several pills, intending to OD.

Slave Liberation: Reveled in “Protect and Serve” to be the origin of culebras. The Nine Lords and others of their kind were at the bottom of the social ladder in Xibalba, being nothing more than slaves to the demonic aristocracy, until they fled to the mortal world and set themselves and Lords.

comment
Adaptational Villainy: In the original movie Carlos was merely the brothers’ contact in Mexico and unaware of the Titty Twister’s true nature. In the series he’s a full blown vampire and intentionally leading the Geckos to the Titty Twister. Likewise, it seems Sex Machine AKA Professor Tanner cut a deal with the Culebras and wants to sacrifice Katie on the temple's altar. He is also implied to be responsible for the ritual murders Freddie originally consulted him about.

Adaptation Expansion
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_23473ae7
comment
Adaptation Expansion: The first season of the series follows the plot of the movie relatively faithfully, but at a much slower pace. At the same time it adds new characters and provides a backstory absent from the original film. Until the seventh episode, when the show's plot takes another direction. Even the specific race of the Vampires is expanded, in the movie, only Santanico was snake-like, now every vampire is snake-like.

Mythology Gag
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_26ac510e
comment
Mythology Gag: Of course, a lot of memorable lines from the original movie have popped up in the series, sometimes in a completely different context. Carlos steals the border guard's identity in the series. In the movie, Cheech Marin portrays both characters. Chet Pussy, also played by Marin in the movie, was left to be a separate character though. In the movie, everything even remotely cross-shaped hurt vampires, or at least scared them off, and the main characters made great use of that. In the series, repelling a vampire with a cross is the first thing Jacob tries, and, as it turns out, in this continuity crosses do not work. In season 2, Freddie finds the Savini Codex. Some time later, Richie mentions Fred Williamson in a conversation. Tom Savini and Fred Williamson portrayed respectively Sex Machine and Frost in the original movie. In the third episode of season 3, Protect and Serve, Sex Machine encounters a character played by Tom Savini. When he mentions his nickname, Savini's character is clearly not impressed. In the same episode Richie shows a fake ID with a picture of Quentin Tarantino.

Sealed Evil in a Can: The Temple is Santanico’s prison, courtesy of the Nine Lords of the Night. On top of that, season 3 reveals that the Labyrinth served as prison to a whole host of demons that the Lords had imprisoned over the millennia. And they all got out when Carlos blew up the Temple in season 2. The Nine Lords inadvertently turned the Blood Well where Amaru's blood was kept into one of these, as the blood contained Amaru's spirit.

Our Demons Are Different: Introduced in Season 3, they are denizens from the Mayan underworld and even greater in power than the culebras (who used to serve them as lowly slaves). They possess wildly varied appearances with some being indistinguishable from humans such as Amaru and Brasa, humanoid but grotesque like Calavera and Olmeca or just completely alien like Cipactli.

Adaptational Attractiveness: Richie Gecko was played by Quentin Tarantino in the original movie, but in the series he’s played by a former male model. Carlos was played by Cheech Marin in the film and by the younger and better looking Wilmer Valderrama in the series. Inverted by Robert Patrick in Harvey Keitel's former role. The bank teller the brothers hold hostage, along with a Race Lift. In the film, she is a middle aged and white, while in the series, she is a younger Latina woman.

Artistic License – History: Professor Tanner mentions to Freddie that the Culebras' symbol appears in "codexes[sic] going back three thousand years"—except that paper technology wasn't even developed in the Americas until around the 5th century CE.

Not His Sled: The series doesn’t even try to maintain the notorious Halfway Plot Switch of the original movie. The supernatural elements are evident from the very first scene of the pilot.

Adaptational Badass: The two young women Richie takes hostage in the first episode. Their film counterparts run out the door when the shooting happens. In the series, they stop to kick Richie's ass, first. Even Richie himself. In the films he was a reckless psychopath whom Seth had to keep on a proverbial leash while in the series, he's still pretty unhinged, but that was mainly due to psychic manipulations from Santanico and he was described as a pretty competent thief prior to Seth's arrest.

Because You Were Nice to Me: The Geckos were the reason why the Fuller Family totally shattered. But even so, Kate still manages to understand Richie and believes that there is still good in him and sticks with Seth during his time of need. In time both brothers came to care for her, even though they deny it or act like they don't care, it is clear that they genuinely worry for her and does their best to protect and save her.

Eldritch Location
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_9bee1a7f
comment
Eldritch Location: The Temple under the Titty Twister. It is said to be built over the doorway to the Underworld and time and space work wrong there. The closer one gets to the center of the labyrinth the worse the Hallucinations and visions get, to the point of Mind Rape. Staying too long inside it results in Sanity Slippage for a human. It also serves as prison for all the supernatural enemies that the Nine Lords have captured over the millennia.

Foreshadowing: During a flashback we see a kind and religiously devout Prospector being turned into some sort of monster after some of the blood in Lord Oculto's blood well possesses him. Fast forward to the very end of the second season and Kate, the kindest and most devout character on the show is brought back to live and possessed by the same force.

The Series Has Left Reality: Starts out normally, with a pair of fugitives hijacking a family's motor-home and taking it to Mexico. Reality abruptly leaves the building when they're drinking in a roadside cantina and night falls, and the cantina workers become vampires.

Our Vampires Are Different
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_9f63d4f1
comment
Our Vampires Are Different: The vampires in the series are different even from the ones in the movie: They are called culebras, the Spanish word for snake, which they resemble closely instead of bats. They have fangs that fold into their palates instead of retracting into their gums and inject venom. They also have snake-like scales and skin when transformed. They are unaffected by crosses. Bullets can hurt and incapacitate them but they can only be killed by destroying their hearts, at which point their bodies turn to dust. They can walk in the sunlight without much trouble if they have fed recently, but eventually it starts to burn them. After draining their victims they can absorb their memories and shapeshift into their form. It’s implied they do this by feeding on the person’s soul as well as their blood. They can consciously decide not to inject their venom when they bite someone, allowing them to feed on someone without turning them. They seem only slightly stronger and faster than normal humans. They also enjoy eating human flesh and organs, in addition to the blood. According to Robert Rodriguez, the creatures are in fact not really vampires, but something very similar and more ancient. In Season 3, they are revealed to be minor demons from the hell-like dimension of Xibalba, where they were the lower class in demonic hierarchy until the Nine Lords of Night fled to Earth.

Evil Weapon: In the first season it's Richie's bone and obsidian knife. Once Ranger Gonzales gets possession of it he starts getting visions and being harassed by a criminal he and Earl killed years before. In the second season it's Lord Oculto's macuahuitl which demands human sacrifice at regular intervals and is the key to whatever Lord Malvado is looking for.

Small Reference Pools: During the flashbacks to the conquistadors’ arrival to the vicinity of the temple, they claim the land in the name of Queen Isabella, even though the Spaniards didn’t begin exploring the North American mainland until years after her death. This is likely due to her being the only Spanish monarch of the period that a US audience would be familiar with.

Shout-Out: "You came out of that bathroom looking like Jack Torrance." In the episode "La Conquista", in response to Prof. Tanner's speculations about aliens and other dimensions, Seth says: "I can do Temple of Doom but Crystal Skull and I'm out." The episode "Opening Night" includes numerous pop culture references: He says that Balthazar Ambrose's name sounds like a Hanna-Barbera character. Santanico complains that she wants to sleep all day like Bela Lugosi (Although she mangles the name). Richie goes into a lengthy explanation of the plot of The Train to make a point. In the episode "In a Dark Time" Sonja uses the surname Parker for Seth's fake passport, because she figures it's a name that suits a gentleman thief. In the episode "The Best Little Horror House in Texas" Uncle Eddie mockingly refers to Sonja and Seth as Red Sonja and Conan. In "Bondage" Richie accuses Seth of shooting a place up like it was Tech Noir. In the same episode, when he notes that Seth has gotten his tattoo extended Richie jokes that Seth should get "a chest dragon like Iron Fist."

 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_dcb9c541

Ship Tease: Mostly between Seth and Kate in seasons 2 and 3. It never progresses past strong hinting, likely because Seth is an adult man in his late twenties and Kate's still a teenager. Kate and Richie get this on a few occasions as well, although they don't spend much time together after season 1. Seth and Kisa have a couple small teases, most prominently in late Season 3 when Seth lets her drink his blood to heal herself after she's injured in a fight, something he explicitly won't even let Richie do.

Innocuously Important Episode
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_dee56696
comment
Innocuously Important Episode: In the first season episode "Mistress", Seth gives Vanessa four of the oil bonds he and Richie have stolen in Abilene. While it looks like a simple filler subplot, it becomes important in season 2, when it is revealed that the bonds contain a map, and with four pieces missing, it becomes indecipherable. At the end of the second season episode "Bizarre Tales", Carlos blows up the Titty Twister. While at the moment it seems like a purely symbolic action, representing Carlos's letting go of his past, in the season 3 premiere it is revealed that this action freed all the prisoners of the Twister's labyrinth, setting the plot of season 3 in motion.

In the first season it's Richie's bone and obsidian knife. Once Ranger Gonzales gets possession of it he starts getting visions and being harassed by a criminal he and Earl killed years before.

Tragic Monster
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_e35bc0f7
comment
The vampire Santanico Pandemonium is portrayed as a Tragic Monster in the series, whereas in the movie she had no such redeeming traits and was an unambiguous monster.

Meaningful Rename: Starting in season 3, Kisa no longer answers to the name Santanico, even though most culebras and Xibalbans continue to refer to her as such.

The Maze

comment
The Maze: Located at the heart of the Temple, it uses a combination of Psychological Torment Zone and Your Mind Makes It Real to create tailor made tests for those wishing to reach the sarcophagus which contains Santanico’s blood.

comment
Watch the Paint Job: In the second season Richie is so concerned about his precious car than he will actually freeze mid-fistfight with Santanico to avoid messing the paint-job.

Fantastic Caste System
 From Dusk Till Dawn / int_edcc813f
comment
Fantastic Caste System: Xibalaba has a ruthlessly enforced social organization, with Amaru and the demonic aristocracy on top, the demonic "middle class" doing their biding, and beings like the culebras at the very bottom, treated as slaves. It's the reason why the Nine Lords escaped to the mortal world in the first place, thousands of years ago.
