Dr. Sina W @RT65098475 Jul 1 Does anyone else remember the uncensored version? Is it even available anymore? When my girlfriend at the time and I first watched it, it completely knocked us sideways. A brutally uncompromising assault on good taste and conventional morality. In many ways, it anticipated the kind of extreme violence that has since become commonplace in cinema, but unlike so many later films, it actually had a story. This is pure '90s filmmaking, and watching it today, it's hard not to marvel at how CGI and the internet have changed, and often diminished, the cinematic experience. It would be difficult to make a film with this kind of singular madness today. See more g j @g.username 09/17/2023 Robert Rodriguez-style roadtrip sleaze fest of the highest quality. This movie is great fun and the cast are really stand-out. I don't get why this isn't a more celebrated cult film. Really makes me wish Javier Bardem had pursued a shlockier career in cinema.

See more 01/21/2018 An excellent movie about the crazy universe that exists in the lawless border between Mexico and the USA. An allegory of all the violence, kidnappings, rapes and killings that happen hour by hour in the border with total impunity, showed through a metaphoric situation that looks crazy in a first approach but makes total sense when you are well informed about the things that happen in that frontier. Also very funny if you have a dark sense of humor.

James Gandolfini plays the cop in pursuit of these two Tex-Mex bandits. The duo practice an Aztec-inspired version of Santeria and are looking to up the ante. They decide they need pure-blooded gringos in order to sacrifice to their gods. Inspired by a real-life Mexican cult ("Los Narcosatánicos" - the same organization from whom Brujeria got their inspiration), they also trade in bank robbery, prostitution, drug dealing, and the baby fetus black market. Hard to categorize as it is a mash-up of genres; you'll find comedy, action, horror, crime, and romance in this boundary-pushing Spanish/English film. (Fans of Rosie Perez will certainly want to look for the Latin American edit.) See more 10/08/2014 "Wild at Heart" e "Natural Born Killers" cruzam-se numa mistura latina, com todos os picantes disponíveis, mas "Perdita Durango" é bem pior do que os filmes em que se inspira e passa a ser doloroso quando a pachorra se esgota. O Javier Bardem aparece com um penteado à Keiji Hano e o Screamin Jay Hawkins faz um engraçado papel de auxiliar de Santeria. See more Read all reviews
