Kidnapping of the Clintons


When I saw this movie I remember seeing a movie with a similar kidnapping. In this other movie, a semi-bad guy kidnapped a married couple and seduced the wife, with the husband ending up killing himself. Anybody remember the name of the movie?. I believe Tarantino played the bad guy.

You're thinking of "From Dusk Til Dawn" starring George Clooney and Quentin Tatantino. It was a vampire/crime movie, swapping at different points.

Quentin and Clooney kidnapped a father and his two kids. But thats really the only thing it has in common with what you described. Maybe you're mixing several movies together?

Most likely the remake of this film starring Basinger/Baldwin. Michael Madsen played the heavy (which probably brought Tarantino to mind, he's used Madsen several times), and Jennifer Tilley was the seducee. Can't remember who played the cuckold in that one...

reply

The cuckold in the remake was played by James Stephens (THE PAPER CHASE, FIRST MONDAY IN OCTOBER).

That, and From Dusk Till Dawn mentions El Rey.

Will you keep it down? I'm trying to do drugs!
