AWESOME! who made this?
 
Hello friends,





I remember the trailer for this when I watched Grindhouse years ago, and it looked awesome.





Robert Rodriguez makes really cool films. His vignette in 4 Rooms was by far the best in that collection.





Kindly,

Cameron Davis, who is the brother of Spencer Davis (the guy who makes Booty Babes). I have a friend who models for the Booty Babes. She was at the brother's house a few days ago and took this pic. Unfortunately, it's not for sale. I asked. It's a one-off that Cameron Davis did for himself. There aren't even any prints. Damn.
 
I always associated him as Octavio in King Of The Hill and Johnny 23 in Con Air. I will be seeing this at my local theater after I go to Suspiria at the New Beverly tonight. Don Johnson and Cheech Marin (who has been the main funder, commissioner and celebrity promoter of Mexican art and artifacts, which can be seen at LACMA) were main characters also in Tin Cup, which I saw recently.
 
Trejo doesn't look like he aged much since Mi Vida Loca , in fact, he looks younger now lol. Not that he looks young.

Like if you had any desire to watch this movie based on previews or whatever you definitely won't be disappointed. I was really impressed with the pacing of the movie which usually falls flat with these kinds of movies. And not really any bullshit filler for the most part.
 
It started out good up until near the end where it seems they rushed the ending just to get it over with, very anti-climatic.


I was expecting over the top deaths for the bad dudes especially Segal this didn't materialize.


What happened to Tom Savini? he disappears with no explanation.


Overall i would recommend just waiting for the dvd or taking it off the net.
 
Just saw it today. It was the shit. Highly recommended for over the top action movie.
 
Machete was the most fun I've had at movie theater in a long time. If you are in Austin, go see it at the Alamo Drafthouse. With the old trailers, video clips and randomness, I was thoroughly entertained for 45 minutes before the movie even started.

Cmon, that end scene was great. There was so much going on there. Not trying to give anything away, but there were the cars, the guy with the ice cream cart, De Niro with the clothes, the nurses with stripper shoes, the gatling gun on the motorcycle, Segal's speech, etc.
 
Anyone else feel that the "choppy" (no pun) CGI fight impacts and the video conference scenes made this feel very "direct to video" (...and not in the kitchy nostalgic way that Rodriguez intended)? I know what they're going for but didn't hit the mark , in my opinion. Still a fantastic action flick, though.
