Full Tilt Geckos.

Full Tilt Geckos.
NOTE: This is a TF story told from the perspective of my character becoming Seth Gecko from the movie From Dusk Till Dawn with his friend becoming Richie.   This involves MC (mind changes) as well.  Also involves several other FDTD character transformations too.

----------------------------------------------------------
I don’t usually go to the movies anymore but on the occasions in which I do,  it’s usually something pretty damn big -  like for example January 19th.  To some it’s just another day in the first of the year but to me,  it means one thing...the 20th anniversary of From Dusk Till Dawn,  one of the most iconic vampire movies of all time.  I had already seen that movie countless times already but I still watched it over and over to the point of memorizing the quotes.  

I saw the tv series and was disappointed by it,  there were a lot of things I didn’t understand like how Richie’s psychotic behavior was due to him having visions of Santanico or why the Santanico I knew,  loved and had a crush on was replaced with this semi-demonic snake vampiress whose real name was Kisa.  Seriously...Kisa?  What kind of name is that for a dark vampire queen?    To me -  it was like Fox’s Sleepy Hollow tv series,  a show that didn’t know what it was trying to be.  Both shows were competing in the category for ‘trying too hard to be the next Buffy’ anyway.  In my heart,  nothing could replace the movie and the impact it left on me.

That night I decided to go out to go and see the movie with my horror loving friend Jack,   the two of us both arranged to go and meet at the theater to see it,   the movie theater we had chosen to see it in was the infamous Monsterplex theater where various horror movies would be shown including special marathons for certain days of the year.   Jack and I both arrived at the theater and hurried to the ticket selling stand.

“Two tickets for From Dusk Till Dawn,  please.”

“Looks like you’re here just in time for the big anniversary screening.”

“20th Anniversary screening you say?  Now that’s awesome!”

“Yep...we’re definitely going to love seeing this movie again!”

“Enjoy the show,  you two…”

After we received the tickets we headed over to the special screening room where they were showing From Dusk Till Dawn for the anniversary,   we then chose a special duo-seating spot to see the movie in so that we could get a good view of the movie.   Once the movie started,  we sat ourselves down for a wild,  action-packed ride of vampiric proportions.

Upon viewing the first half of the movie,  we found ourselves relating to Seth and Richie despite the fact they were both criminals doing bad deeds and even though they did take the Fuller family hostage,  we could relate to their struggles in someway and could even see ourselves in them, and we bonded while watching the movie.

But something completely unexpected happened once we watched the infamous second half with the vampires and the Titty Twister,   my supernatural sense started going off as the environment around us started shifting rapidly...shifting to become the exterior of the famous Titty Twister bar complete with the signature flashing sign of the woman with light up breasts,  one of the theater goers that was watching the movie had also morphed into one of the characters from the movie -  from the look and the fact he now had Cheech Marin’s voice,   he had become the character Chet Pussy.

“Is that...Chet Pussy?”

“Yeah...it is.”

“But how?”

“Well judging by the fact my supernatural sense is acting up,  I have a feeling that the movie itself is doing this to us in some supernatural way or another..it's like we're becoming part of the movie itself.  Like everyone's becoming characters from it."

“Are you saying that the man who was over there a second ago wasn’t Chet before this?”

“Exactly….it’s like he transformed into the character.”

“I wonder who else has transformed…”

I looked around to see who else had been transformed,  I saw that one man and his teenage kids had become the Fuller family and I could even tell that he resembled Harvey Keitel as Jacob and even had his voice,  the two kids had become Kate and Scott respectively and were cuddling up together to stay safe.

"That man and his kids...that's Jacob!  And those kids are Kate and Scott."

"So they've been transformed too?"

"Yep..."

“Are we next? Because i’ve got a sneaking suspicion we might be.”

“I’m pretty sure we probably won’t,  but you never know..it could happen.”

“I wonder which characters we’d end up becoming.”

“Hmmmm...maybe Sex Machine and Frost?  Santanico and Razor Charlie?  The dancers?  Members of that vampire rock-band with the human torso guitar?”

“Or maybe we might be…”

I was about to continue what I was saying but something prevented me from doing so,  it was some supernatural force that was whispering to us in our ears as if it was telling us something, something that sounded rather sinister,   my heartbeat started beating rapidly and so did Jack’s, the two of us then felt some rather personality and attribute changes happening,   I panicked a little as I tried to fight them but I found it difficult to once a more charismatic and sly personality found itself taking over and starting to alter my mind.

Jack started hallucinating like crazy,  having visually disturbing hallucinations about women who he wanted to hit on and do dirty things around while at the same time becoming afraid,  timid and disturbed -  as he panicked several times after hearing the same voices from before.  He was freaking out a little.

“I don’t like this…what’s going on?”

“I think we’re transforming too.”

“You mean...we’re?”

“Yep...I think you’re going to be Richie and i’m going to be Seth…”

“Oh no,  not Richie.  I don’t like that,  I don’t like the idea of that at all.”

“Quiet...Richie! I mean Jack!  Wait..did I just call you Richie?”

“Yeah,  you did...Seth,  I mean Nate..”

“You just called me Seth!”

“Huh?  I don’t know what’s getting into me...I don’t feel quite like myself at all.”

“Neither do I…”

I felt several waves of supernatural energy jolting through my body as I started to undergo a transformation of sorts,  looking at my clothing I could see my black spider web t shirt slowly turning white as my jacket morphed into a slick black suit jacket,   looking at my shoes I could see them morphing from a pair of spiked sneakers into a pair of black sensible dress shoes,  I could also feel myself stretching to become more lithe but well built in build.

Jack was also becoming very lithe and well built in terms of his build,  and his clothing was changing to become very similar to mine with a similar black suit and white shirt and black shoes,  in the process both of our jeans slowly turned into a stylish pair of black pants that gave us a very fetching matching look.  Our skin cleared up  at the exact same time with mine becoming very rugged and smooth.

Looking at my arm,  I could see the image of a tribal fire tattoo burning itself onto it,  I recognized the tattoo instantly...that was my...I mean Seth’s tattoo.  I panted slightly as I slowly grew in height to 6’ft.   I was now taller than Jack,  who at this point had grown to 5’11.  At this point it was getting very difficult for both of us to fight the changes and we were already starting to think and act like the two brothers.  

“It’s just as I thought...Jack,  you’re becoming Richie…”

“And you’re becoming Seth…”

“We’re becoming the Gecko brothers?”

“Yep,  that’s exactly what is happening to us.”

“But i’m becoming Richie...and I don’t like this at all.”

“Calm down Richie...I mean Jack...I mean Richie!”

“Sorry Seth...I mean Nate...I mean Seth!”

“We have to do something about this…”

“I don’t like this idea…”

“Richie!”

“Sorry…you know what i’m like when i’m paranoid.”

“Get a hold of yourself,  man..”

Taking a look at myself and my new build,  I could tell that I now weighed 165lbs while Jack weighed about 160lbs now so we were now both lithe and well built in terms of our overall weight and build.  The glasses I was wearing slipped off my face and landed on the ground while my hair slicked itself back and turned black,  the overall hairstyle slicking itself into a Caesar style haircut.

Jack’s hair slicked itself back and turned black as well, as a pair of thick glasses appeared around his eyes,  his eyes darkening a little as they grew wider and became slightly sunken, his eyebrows turned black and arched a little as his features slowly morphed and reshaped themselves.   In the process of noticing his changing features,  the fire tattoo from earlier manifested itself on my neck as my eyebrows blackened and thickened,  arching in the process as my eye color turned a darker shade of brown  - my eyes widening and giving me a very doe-eyed look.


“Look at us...we’re becoming the Gecko bros..”

“I know Seth,  it’s weirding me out a little.”

“Because you’re starting to look like Richie?”

“Yeah...I am..”

I sighed and grunted several times as my features slowly began to morph and reshape themselves,  with each step gradually shifting to become more and more handsome - to the point of being almost completely attractive,  I could feel a tingling sensation in my lower jaw as I saw my chin slowly elongating and jutting out...forming a pseudo lantern jaw,  not exactly Bruce Campbell or Jay Leno or Robert Z’Dar size but something in between the former,  in fact my features in general were looking more Clooney-like in appearance,   my teeth becoming much brighter than usual as my lips became quite kissable.   My expression curving itself into a very sly confident smile in addition to this.

Jack’s features were also continuing the process of morphing and reshaping themselves, as slowly but surely he started to resemble Quentin Tarantino right down to the chin as it jutted out just like mine had and formed a Lantern Jaw of some kind,  when his facial features were finished reshaping themselves -  he fully resembled Quentin Tarantino.   Just like how I now was fully resembling Clooney.

At this point we both knew that we now were perfect doubles of Seth and Richie Gecko and despite our attempts to resist the transformations we both lost ourselves in the process and let the personalities of the legendary Gecko bros take over from there...it just felt more natural that way anyway.    Looking back over at the entrance of the Titty Twister,  I decided to go and take a look -  I decided to also take Jack...or at this point...Richie, with me.  Upon entering the bar, we saw thousands of guests most likely bikers and truckers as well as moviegoers that had become the residents of the bar.

I coughed several times as my voice grew deeper,  but at the same time becoming very smooth and charismatic like my personality,  becoming very charming and irresistible, listening to my new voice I could definitely tell I now had Clooney’s voice,  and I could also tell Jack’s voice was altering to match his new appearance - becoming very much what was basically the voice of Quentin Tarantino.  

Our transformations both reached a climax as Seth and Richie’s memories manifested up in our minds respectively and we forgot who we were prior to this,  in fact...to us it now seemed that we had always been Seth and Richie Gecko,  and well...that was just cool.  We found ourselves bonding even more due to this as well. When our transformations were complete,  there we were.   We were the Gecko brothers,  and there’s no one else we would have rather been.


“You know...I was wrong about this…”

“Really,  Richie?”

“Yeah...this is actually really fucking awesome.”

“I know, right?”

“It’s like we’ve always been like this..”

“Wanna go and see if anyone else has been morphed?”

“Sure.”

“Follow me…”

Running towards the table where drinks were served,  I asked for a cold drink of beer -  the person serving the drinks turned around to reveal they were the Razor Charlie character played by Danny Trejo,  he even had his voice.  My two other best friends Kevin and Joseph had been morphed into Sex Machine and Frost,  while my good friend Kara had been transformed into Santanico herself.   Richie panted as he rushed over to where she was.  He looked very pleased to see her.

“Hey Seth...can we watch Santanico do her snake-dance again?  That was awesome when we saw it last time.  Especially when she showed off those gorgeous feet of hers.  Now THAT was the best part ever.”

“Oh Richie...you and your crush on Santanico.”

“I can’t help it,  she’s so smoking hot.”

“But remember,  she’s a vampiress who killed you last time, bit you and turned you…”

“I know,  I know...but that makes it even better.”

“There’s nothing good about becoming a vampire,  Richie.”

“Oh yes there is...can I be a vampire again,  Seth?”

“Richie, if you become a vampire again i’m going to have to keep you away from any and all crosses and and keep you in some place dark so you won’t end up exploding when sunlight hits you.  Plus,  we don’t want another bloodbath like last time.”

“But I like bloodbaths and killing sprees!”

“Richie...we all know about your bloodthirsty streak and what it does to people.”

“I know...so can I be a vampire?”

“If you behave yourself,  maybe..”

“I’ll be on my best behavior.”

“Richie…”

I scowled at Richie for a minute before calming down and going to sit at the performance table area where Santanico was about to do her seductive dance,   we both decided to sit back and watch the show with the rest of the patrons as the famous snake-dance scene was reenacted perfectly,  I could tell that Richie was enjoying it a lot especially seeing as he got to see Santanico up close.  I wasn’t jealous of him though,  after all -  Santanico is one woman that’s good enough for everyone in the bar to share.

As for what happened afterwards,  I think you all know what happens after Santanico’s dance number,   that’s right...we were now in the movie and living it,  we were enjoying every moment of it and there was nothing else in the world quite like it.   Our vampire fuelled adventure was just getting started and it was then we knew it was going to be one hell of a night.

With that we’d like to share our very special message to all of you,  when January 19th rolls around,  that’s the time to sink your teeth into the bloody goodness that is the movie known as From Dusk Till Dawn. Happy 20th Anniversary to From Dusk Till Dawn,  one of the best,  most badass and overall most awesome vampire movies to ever exist.

And remember….everybody be cool, you...be cool.
