Machete

[Josef]

I still can't believe they're making this movie. In case you didn't know, it was originally one of the fake trailers on Grindhouse. Well Robert Rodriguez decided to really make it, and it looks beyond awesome.

Check out this trailer:

Mark your calendars for Labor Day this year!

Agreed about the chick factor! I hear Lindsay really rocked the role too! But don't forget Cheech Marin, Don Johnson, Robert DeNiro and Steven Seagal!

Man, I hope Machete deals Seagal a horrible death.

Death by samurai sword I'm hoping!

Bump, because it opened today, and is getting some great reviews!

Finally had a chance to see this the other night. It ended up being pretty much what I expected: a ballsy over the top action movie full of sex and gore that doesn't take itself too seriously. Really, how could it when it has:

Steven Seagal in his best role in the last 10 years as a dual katana-weilding maniacal Mexican drug lord.

Robert DeNiro as a murdering, immigrant-hating dirty senator in probably the scummiest role I've ever seen him play.

Don Johnson as a good old boy border patrol vigilante.

Lindsay Lohan as a coked-up whore (quite a stretch for her ) who is nude during a good chunk of her scenes, including a sex scene with her movie mother.

Cheech Marin as a dual-shotgun wielding priest who has no problem killing multiple people.

Jessica Alba and Michelle Rodriguez as hot big gun-wielding Mexican chicks.

And Danny Trejo as, well, Machete. The brutal ex-Federale who prefers to dish out his punishment with a large knife. And who has the best line (or text as it were) ever: "You just fucked with the wrong Mexican"

Basically, it totally lives up to the original Grind House fake trailer. So if over the top, crazy violence and nudity interest you, you'll definitely need to see this.
