17. Satanico Pandemonium (Salma Hayek) - From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
Whats the worst that can happen inside a bar called The Titty Twister where the barman is Danny Trejo and Cheech Marin stands outside shouting, Come on in, pussy lovers! If we dont got it, you dont want it? Well, you could encounter Satanico Pandemonium, the exotic dancer whose name comes from a 1975 Mexican horror film. Over a century old, shes the Twisters Queen Vampire, and judging from her youthful appearance, she mustve opened a lot of necks and bathed in a lot of blood. As the bars main attraction, its her job to keep the guests entertained while her colleagues lock the doors, which she does by performing a seductive dance. But be warned: resist her charms, and she will transform into a beast and sink her fangs into your neck.
