Co-writer Álvaro Rodríguez & co-star Jeff Fahey will join us IN PERSON, schedules permitting, to discuss the movie!
If you’re going to hire Machete to kill the bad guy, you better make damn sure the bad guy isn’t you! Leaping from the explosive faux trailer in Grindhouse, Danny Trejo plays an ex-Federale double crossed and left for dead. But they fucked with the wrong Mexican and now he’s out for revenge. Featuring a once-in-a-lifetime cast: Steven Seagal & Robert De Niro, Lindsay Lohan & Don Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jeff Fahey, Jessica Alba & more!
“The pace is swift, the tone playful, the screenplay peppered with one-liners. Whether mowed down by gunfire or dispatched by sheaves of blades, the bodies pile up in split-second blasts of carnage.” – Stephen Holden, The New York Times
“Here’s Robert Rodriguez’s Machete to show us how it’s done: with wit, moviemaking skill, and a cast to die for. The movie’s an unexpected end-of-summer tonic: a trash guilty pleasure with a healthy (if really violent) sense of outrage. It’s also Rodriguez’s freest movie yet, and possibly his best.” – Ty Burr, Boston Globe
