Perdita Durango (1997)

Option 1Can't Watch?

Wait 30secs. Movie still not playing? Click the "Can't Watch?" tab.

If the movie didn't load, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and a basic security check like a captcha will be performed. After completing the check, close that page and return here.

Refresh this page. Wait 30 secs. The movie should load and you can just hit play.



If it still doesn't play, Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now start playing in a new tab of your browser or begin downloading to your device. This option has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the movie player will not include these subs with this method.

The new system here has been designed keeping in mind even people with low internet speeds sub-8mbps. Even if you have a really bad connection, you should still be able to watch the movie without any issues if you:
Start the movie. Pause it. Wait for 30-45 seconds. Start playing again.

This 'Can't Watch' method really only works if it's your specific device/browser that's interfering with the player. There is no real advantage of speed here. Or if there is a temp network glitch or read lag from the server disk.

If you're still having problems, try using 'Incognito mode' in your browser. On iPhones, especially older ones, use Chrome instead of Safari. Might help.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check which is often automated.

AKA: Dance with the Devil
Directed by: Alex de la Iglesia
Starring: Rosie Perez (Perdita Durango), Javier Bardem (Romeo), Harley Cross (Dwayne), Aimee Graham (Estelle), James Gandolfini (Agent Woody), Screamin’ Jay Hawkins (Adolfo), Demian Bichir (Catalina), Alex Cox (Doyle), Carlos Bardem (Reggie)
Country: Mexico, Spain, USA
Language: English, Spanish (Eng Subs)
Runtime: 02:09:42
Genres: Occult, Rape-Men, Rape-Women

Plot – Spoilers:
Perdita Durango hooks up with Romeo on the Mexico-US border because she’s mostly got nothing else to do, and also because he’s a criminal and an occultist, which she finds amusing. Perdita suggests that they kill an American for the heck of it. They eventually settle on a young couple whom they lug along on their travails involving guns, gangsters and occult ceremonies.

Sometimes, the film plays out like an ordinary homage to Tarantino, but other times makes up with its eccentricities and interestingly funny characters like Adolfo (played by Screamin’ Jay Hawkins) and the perennially mumbling Doyle.

It’s a comedy and not a good one. Monkey face Rosie Perez with her “I’m a tough girl who needs dildos the size of telephone poles” attitude is something I don’t find to be sexy in the least. When she straddles the poor guy tied to the chair I could imagine the stink from her overly used twat. It’s just a stupid movie with a waste of time plot that was probably designed to boost Perez’s career but tanked hard. Some people might like this type of pure bullshit cops and robbers comedy stuff but I’m not in to it at all. 1 and a half stars.

Eu achei que esse filme ia estar aqui pois e um filme maldito e rejeitado pois ninguém gostou dele assisti em outro site desses que tem essas raridades e um pouco absurdo chato a atriz mexicana e horrível o Javier exagerado o que salvo o filme e o saudoso James gandolfino de sopranos excelente ator e tem um filme que a Kristen Stewart e uma prostituta e fica tentando seduzilo também e bom só por isso o filme merece nota 6,5

A great companion film to David Lynch’s Wild at Heart. Following Isabella Rossellini’s character Perdita Durango now played by Rosie Perez. I’m biased on this one as Wild at Heart is my favorite Lynch film. Not as great as Elephant Man but far more enjoyable to rewatch.
4.5 out of 5

This is not the original Spanish version which means it is missing 10 extra minutes of good stuff.

Haven’t seen this one before cus I heard was pretty average and after watching it, just got that confirmed. Shame because is the only movie on this site from one of my favorite Spanish directors. So if you want to see some really great and weird movies from Alex de la Iglesia, those are my recommendations:
The Last Circus
The Bar
The Day of the Beast
Those are much, mush better than this one.. enjoy!

Good crazy action stuff, def a nod to Tarantino/Rodriguez, but Rosie makes me stiff on her worst day. She’s worth the look.
