Machete

not horror, but this sounds completly bad ass.

Danny Trejo plays the main role.
Directed by Robert Rodriguez.

Grindhouse tanked (which I'm still a little puzzled about - guess there aren't as many true film fans out there as I thought). I'm not so sure he'll get this one off the ground, but it looks cool. The Machete trailer in Grindhouse was great and I love Trejo!

and the tagline!

They fucked with the wrong Mexican! I should get that shit tattooed across my chest!

maybe a nice antonio banderas cameo. How sweet would it be if he was "the boss" revealed at the end

I heard that the movie would be part of the Grindhouse DVD, if that were true, it would make this a "buy or die" package for sure!

Two stars are reportedly circling Machete, the Grindhouse spin-off to be directed by Robert Rodriguez.

According to Bloody-Disgusting, Oscar winner Robert De Niro, Superbad's Jonah Hill, and Fast & Furious's Michelle Rodriguez are poised to join Danny Trejo in the film.

De Niro will reportedly play the corrupt Senator McLaughlin, the adversary of the blade-wielding ex-Federale Machete (once again played by Trejo, who co-starred with De Niro in Heat).

Rodriguez is said to play "Luz," while Hill has been tipped for the role of "Julio."

No word yet if Jeff Fahey and Cheech Marin will reprise their roles from the faux trailer as the man who hired and then double-crossed Machete and the shotgun-totin' padre, respectively.

"Machete" lives !!

Full Machete Cast Revealed
Source: Variety
August 5, 2009


In an article at Variety talking about Overnight Productions, the trade revealed that production began this week on Machete, a feature version of the fake trailer that was included in Grindhouse.

Danny Trejo is returning as the title character and Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Michelle Rodriguez, Steven Seagal, Lindsay Lohan, Cheech Marin, Don Johnson and Jeff Fahey play supporting roles.

Robert Rodriguez is co-directing with protege Ethan Maniquis.

And people are already dumping on the film because of the Lohan casting.

I'm not a fan of the silly little bitch either, but really, she hasn't been flaring up like herpes since she dropped the whole "yay, I'm a lesbian" schtick. Rodriguez, like Tarantino, likes to get a little wacky with his casting choices. Who else is going to make Danny Trejo a leading man? Or pull Steven Segal out of straight-to-DVD hell? Mickey Rourke's stock didn't start going up again until "Once Upon a Time in Mexico" and "Sin City."

So the folks crapping on "Machete" because of the casting are fucking idiots. Hell, if I can still enjoy "Black Snake Moan" even with Justin motherfucking Timberlake in it, I can handle a little Lindsey Lohan; at least she has tits.
