From Dusk Till Dawn | 1996

From Dusk Till Dawn location: Calico Dry Lake, California
From Dusk Till Dawn location: site of the fictitious ‘Titty Twister’ bar: Calico Dry Lake Bed, Barstow, California

Mexico? No. But although the Tarantino-scripted, all-stops-out genre-busting Western vampire splatterfest was made in the more accessible California, you won’t be able to visit the ‘Titty Twister’ bar.

The elaborate trucker hangout was constructed from scratch, telegraph poles and all, on the featureless salt flats of Calico Dry Lake Bed, beneath the touristy Calico Ghost Town, on I-15 about a mile east of Barstow in the Mojave Desert.
