Scary, sexy, cool

Salma Hayek, "From Dusk Till Dawn"

Wrapping what appears to be a python around her body, Hayek gives us one of the more unique screen stripteases in “From Dusk Till Dawn.” She’s a vampire with a fool-proof plan: Lure in a fresh batch of blood by offering lap dances. As southern fried rock music plays in the background, and director Robert Rodriguez’s pyrotechnics fire all around her, Hayek moves and grooves, soothing the hissing snake as the crowd goes silent. Hayek’s dance is plenty sexy, and the crowd’s enamored reaction is plenty scary. There’s no doubt what fate awaits them.
