Quotes 

  • Santanico Pandemonium : I'm not gonna drain you completely. You're gonna turn for me. You'll be my slave. You'll live for me. You'll eat bugs because I order it. Why? Because I don't think you're worthy of human blood. You'll feed on the blood of stray dogs. You'll be my foot stool. And at my command, you'll lick the dog shit from my boot heel. Since you'll be my dog, your new name will be "Spot". Welcome to slavery.

    Seth : No, thanks. I've already had a wife.

    [shoots the rope holding the wooden chandelier, which impales her] 

  • Carlos : So, what, were they psychos, or...

    Seth : Did they look like psychos? Is that what they looked like? They were vampires. Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits them, I don't give a fuck how crazy they are!

  • Seth : Don't you ever try and fucking run on us.

    [holds a gun to Gloria's head] 

    Seth : I've got six little friends and they can all run faster than you can.

  • [last lines] 

    Kate : Seth. Want some company?

    Seth : Kate, do you know where I'm going? Do you know what El Ray is?

    Kate : [shaking her head]  No.

    Seth : [getting in his car]  Go home, Kate. I may be a bastard, but I'm not a fucking bastard.

  • Seth : So, what's the deal with you two, you a couple of fags?

    Jacob : He's my son.

    Seth : Yeah, how's that happen? You don't look Japanese.

    Jacob : Neither does he. He looks Chinese.

    Seth : Oh, ooh, well excuse me all to hell.

  • Sex Machine : He's not your brother anymore.

    Seth : Well, that is a matter of opinion and I do not give a fuck about yours.

  • Kate : Are you okay?

    Seth : Peachy, Kate. The world's my oyster, except for the fact that I just rammed a wooden stake in my brother's heart because he turned into a vampire, even though I don't believe in vampires. Aside from that unfortunate business, everything's hunky-dory.

  • Seth : So what are you, Jacob? A faithless preacher? Or a mean motherfuckin' servant of God?

    Jacob : I'm a mean, mhm mhm servant of God.

  • Seth Gecko : We need to have a talk. What's your name?

    Hostage Gloria : Gloria.

    Seth Gecko : Hello, Gloria, I'm Seth. That's my brother Richie. Let's cut to the chase. I'm going to ask you one question, and all I want is a yes or no answer. Do you want to live through this?

    Hostage Gloria : Yes.

    Seth Gecko : Good. Rule #1: No noise. No questions. If you make a noise,

    [He pulls out his gun] 

    Seth Gecko : Mister .44 makes a noise. If you ask a question, Mister .44 answers it. Now are you absolutely, positively clear about Rule #1?

    Hostage Gloria : Yes.

    Seth Gecko : Rule #2: You do what we say when we say it. If you don't, see Rule #1. Rule #3: Don't you ever try and fucking run on us,

    [He puts his gun to her head, she closes her eyes] 

    Seth Gecko : because I got six little friends and they can all run faster than you can. Open your eyes.

    [She does] 

    Seth Gecko : Gloria, you hang in there, you follow the rules, and you don't fuck with us, and you'll get out of this alive. I give you my word. Okay?

    [She nods] 

  • Seth : Everybody be cool.

    [to Pete] 

    Seth : YOU - be cool.

  • Seth : [to hostage Gloria]  You. Plant yourself in that chair.

    Hostage Gloria : What are you gonna do with...

    Seth : I said "plant yourself." Plants don't talk.

  • Richie : [about their motel room]  Do they have cable?

    Seth : No

    Richie : Do they have the X-rated channel?

    Seth : No.

    Richie : Do they have a waterbed?

    Seth : Nope.

    Richie : Well what do they got?

    Seth : They have four walls and a bed and that's all we need.

  • Seth : Why, out of all the God-forsaken shitholes in Mexico, do we have to meet here?

    Carlos : One place's just as good as another.

  • Jacob : Does anybody know what's going on here?

    Seth : I know what's going on. We got a bunch of fucking vampires out there, trying to get in here and suck our fucking blood. And that's it. Plain and simple. I don't want to hear anything about "I don't believe in vampires," because I don't fucking believe in vampires, but I believe in my own two eyes, and what I saw, is fucking vampires. Now, do we all agree that what we are dealing with is vampires?

    Kate : Yes.

  • Seth : All right, vampire killers... let's kill some fucking vampires.

  • Seth : [upon finding the body of Gloria the hostage]  Richard, what's wrong with you? Is it me? Is this my fault? Do think that this is what I am? I am a professional fucking thief. I don't kill people that I don't have to, and I don't rape women. What you are doing - what you are doing - what you are fucking doing, is not how it's done. Do you understand? Say "yes, Seth, I understand." Say "yes, Seth, I fucking understand."

  • Seth : I know that I have put you through hell, and I know that I have been one rough pecker. But from here on out, you are all in my cool book.

  • Seth : [talking about the Titty Twister]  You've never been here before?

    Carlos : No. I drove by it a couple of times. It's a rowdy place, it's out in the middle of nowhere, there'd be no cops and it's open from dusk till dawn. And didn't you say you wanted to meet in the morning? Here we are.

    Seth : Well since you just picked this place out of a hat, my brother is dead, that girl's entire fucking family is dead!

    Carlos : What, were they psychos? Or...

    Seth : Do they look like psychos? Is that what they look like? They were vampires! Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits them, I don't give a fuck how crazy they are!

    Carlos : Seth, how can I make it up to you?

    Seth : Can't make it up to me Carlos. I tell you, you can't do it. Can't make it up!

    [has second thoughts on Carlos' deal] 

    Seth : 15%, instead of 30% for my stay in El Ray, that's a good start.

    Carlos : 28.

    Seth : My brother's gone, you understand that? He is gone, and he is not coming back, and that is your fault. 20.

    Seth , Carlos : [shake on deal]  25.

  • Jacob : Are you such a fucking loser, you can't tell when you've won?

    Seth : What did you call me?

    Jacob : Nothing. I didn't make a statement. I asked a question. Would you like me to ask it again?

    Seth : Umm-hmm.

    Jacob : Are you such a loser, you can't tell when you've won? The entire state of Texas, along with the F.B.I., are looking for you. Did they find you? No. They couldn't. You've won, Seth. Enjoy it.

  • Richie : Where are my glasses?

    Seth : They, uh... they broke when you fell.

    Richie : Oh, fuck, Seth, these are, like, my only pair!

    Seth : Don't worry about it, we'll get you another pair.

    Richie : What do you mean, "don't worry about it"? Of course I'm gonna worry about it, I can't fuckin' see.

    Seth : I'll take care of it when we get to El Rey.

    Richie : Yeah, like some Mexican hole-in-the-wall's gonna have my fucking prescription.

  • Seth : Okay hard drinkers, let's drink hard. I'm buyin'.

  • Seth : [talking to Jacob Fuller about his wife's death in a car crash]  Died instantly?

    Jacob : Not quite. She was trapped in the wreck for about... six hours before she passed on.

    Seth : Yeah, those acts of God really stick it in and break it off, don't they?

    Jacob : Yes, they do.

  • Seth : OK, ramblers. Let's get rambling.

  • Seth : [ducking behind a display case]  Richie! You okay?

    Richie : He shot me in the fucking hand, I told you he said help us!

    Pete Bottoms : [screaming in pain]  I NEVER SAID HELP US!

    Seth : Well it doesn't matter now, because you've got about two fucking seconds to live!

  • Seth : [puts a gun to Sex-Machine's head]  You touch my brother with that stake, biker, and vampires won't have to suck your blood. They'll be able to lick it up off the floor.

  • Pete Bottoms : Look, he comes in here everyday, we bullshit; he's used my bathroom about a thousand times; if I told him no, he'd know somethin' was up.

    Seth : Okay, I want him out of here, in his car, and down the road or you can change the name of this place to Benny's World of Blood.

  • [after Richard blows up Benny's World of Liquor] 

    Seth : "Low profile." Do you know what the words "low profile" mean?

  • Seth : Here is the peace in death I could not give you in life.

  • Seth : Well, your best better get a hell of a lot fucking better, or you are gonna feel a hell of a lot fucking worse.

  • Richie : Shit, I started to get worried. Where the fuck ya been?

    Seth : Sight seein'.

    Richie : What'd ya see?

    Seth : Cops.

  • Seth : Do you think this is who I am? I am a professional thief; I don't kill people I don't have to.

  • Seth Gecko : You serve food here, Jose?

    Razor Charlie : Best in Mexico.

    Seth Gecko : I kinda doubt that.

  • [after first entering the Titty Twister bar] 

    Seth Gecko : I could become a regular.

  • Seth : And if there is a hell, and those sons of bitches are from it, then there has got to be a heaven... Jacob, there's gotta be.

  • Old Timer : [irritated by Seth's incessant ringing of the front desk bell]  What the hell do you want?

    Seth : What do you think I want, you mean old bastard? I want a fucking room.

    Old Timer : [quietly shocked]  Okay, alright.

    [tosses Seth room keys] 

  • Seth : Fight now, cry later.

  • Seth : Do you have a cross?

    Jacob : In the Winnebago.

    Seth : In other words, no.

    Scott Fuller : What are you talking about? We got crosses all over the place. All you gotta do is put two sticks together and you got a cross.

    Sex Machine : He's right. Peter Cushing does that all the time.

    Seth : Okay, I'll buy that.

  • Seth : Now, this is my kind of place.

  • Seth : Jacob, you're going to keep going down this road until you get to DiGallo. When you get to DiGallo, you're going to turn this big bastard left, and go a couple of miles until you see a bar called "The Titty Twister." And to my understanding, you cannot miss it.

    Jacob : Then?

    Seth : And then you stop, because that's where were going.

  • Seth : Richie, get back on the clock.

    Richie : How many?

    Seth : Three.

  • Seth : And I don't want to hear anything about "I don't believe in vampires" because *I* don't believe in vampires, but I believe in my own two eyes, and what *I* saw is fucking vampires!

  • Kate : Seth, should I save the last bullets for us?

    Seth : No, use 'em on the next two fucks that try to bite you!

  • Seth : I don't give a damn about living or dying anymore; all I care about is taking as many as those demons back to hell as I can.

    Jacob : Amen.

  • Seth : Now, is my shit together or is my shit together?

  • Frost : I came to my senses. I realized I killed the entire V.C. Squad singlehanded. There was blood... and chunks of yellow flesh clinging to my bayonet. To this day, I don't remember...

    [Frost's story get's cut off when Sex Machine bites him; Frost screams; bites Jacob; eventually overpowers Kate and Seth, but not before going toward Scott] 

    Frost : He fuckin' bit me! FUCKIN' BIT ME!

    Sex Machine : What are you gonna do about it?

    Frost : Come on, Sex Machine!

    [Grabs Sex Machine and tosses him to the front doors] 

    Seth : Oh... shit!

  • Seth : Richie!

    Richie : Yeah.

    Seth : Put in your bit.

    Richie : [to Kate and Scott]  I grind my teeth.

  • Seth : We did it. We're in Mexico! We're fucking in Mexico you little piece of fucking shit!

  • Seth : I'm gonna kill every last one of you godless fuckin' pieces of shit!

  • Santanico Pandemonium : Let's see if you taste as good as your brother.

    [Seth shoots her, she falls backwards, but jumps back to her feet, unharmed, then punches Seth, knocking him on to his back, where she stands over him, holding him down with her foot] 

    Santanico Pandemonium : I'm not gonna drain you completely, you'll be my slave because I don't think you're worthy of human blood. You'll feed on the blood of stray dogs.

    [He empties out his gun and begins to secretly reload it, as she forces him down even harder] 

    Santanico Pandemonium : You'll be my footstool and, at my command, you'll lick the dog shit from my boot heel!

    Seth : [Sarcastically, as he continues reloading his gun]  Ooh!

    Santanico Pandemonium : Since you'll be my dog, your name will be... Spot.

    [He successfully reloads his gun and aims it at Santanico's face, who has transformed into her vampiric self once again] 

    Santanico Pandemonium : Welcome to slavery.

    Seth : Thanks. I already had a wife, he moves the gun over and shoots down the chandelier, which comes crashing down on top of Santanico, impaling her heart and killing her.

  • Seth : A friend of mine had himself ordained a minister of his own religion. Some way to fuck the IRS.

  • Seth : I never said do what I do. I said do what I say.

  • Seth : Actually, our best weapon against these satanic cocksuckers is this man. He's a preacher.

  • Seth : That's what I call a fucking show!

  • Seth : I don't want to do it, but, I will turn this place into the fucking Wild Bunch if I think that you are fucking with me!

  • Seth : We'll get to Mexico and it's gonna be sweet rosemary and 100 proof liquor and rice and beans and none of this shit's gonna matter.

  • Seth : We're gonna pound booze, wait for Carlos. When he gets there, he's gonna take us down to El Rey. And then you and l, my brother, we're gonna kick fuckin' back. How you like them apples?

    Richie : Far out.

  • Seth : [to Kate]  You, Gidget, go in the bathroom and put on some clothes.

  • Seth Gecko : Now I'm gonna ask you one question, and all I want is a yes or no answer: Do you wanna live through this?
