From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
Two criminals and their hostages unknowingly seek temporary refuge in an establishment populated by vampires, with chaotic results.
Sounds crazy? It is! I love the originality of this movie and the cast is phenomenal, actors like Harvey Keitel, Quentin Tarantino, George Clooney, Salma Hayek and Juliette Lewis.
Plot:
Seth Gecko and his younger brother Richard are on the lam after a bloody bank robbery in Texas. They escape across the border into Mexico and will be home-free the next morning, when they pay off the local kingpin. They just have to survive ‘from dusk till dawn’ at the rendezvous point, which turns out to be a Hell of a strip joint.

Too Young to Die? (1990)
An abused 15 year old is charged with a murder that carries the death penalty in this fact-based story.
(Pitt and Lewis really had a relationship from 1989-93, she was 16 and he was 10 years older)
Plot:
Too Young to Die? stars Juliette Lewis as a benighted teenaged girl. She is married at 14, is deserted, and begins walking the streets at 15. Abused by virtually every man with whom she comes in contact (including her own father), Lewis commits murder—and finds herself on Death Row before reaching her 16th birthday. Michael Tucker is the attorney who pleads that his client not be tried as an adult. Despite all the horrendous wrongs piled upon Juliette Lewis in Too Young to Die?, her character fails to elicit audience sympathy.

Natural Born Killers (1994)
Dark, macabre and unique. I really enjoyed this movie. Quentin Tarantino is a fantastic writer and Oliver Stone is a fantastic director. The lead actors Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis did a great job. I also would like to mention Robert Downey Jr. and Tommy Lee Jones who are hilarious.
Plot:
The misadventures of Mickey and Mallory: outcasts, lovers, and serial killers. They travel across Route 666 conducting psychadelic mass-slaughters not for money, not for revenge, just for kicks. Glorified by the media, the pair become legendary folk heroes; their story told by the single person they leave alive at the scene of each of their slaughters.

Gilbert’s life, his future, is thwarted he know this, but it is in this Guardian Angel that his love and bond for Arnie cannot, and will not, be let go. That is until the free spirit of Becky arrives in town, and with her grandmother are stranded for the week while waiting for parts for their vehicle…

Cape Fear (1991)
scary! the cast is incredible; robert deniro, nick nolte, jessica lange and young juliette lewis :) Plot: Sam Bowden is a small-town corporate attorney/”Leave It to Beaver”-esque family-man. Max Cady is a tattooed, cigar-smoking, bible-quoting, psychotic rapist. What do they have in common? Fourteen years, ago Sam was a public defender assigned to Max Cady’s rape trial, and he made a serious error: he hid a document from his illiterate client that could have gotten him acquitted. Now, the cagey, bibliophile Cady has been released, and he intends to teach Sam Bowden and his family a thing or two about loss. Trailer: http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi3300655385/
