The 70s nostalgia train barrels full steam ahead with Robert Rodriguez’s MACHETE, as another wide-load caboose of vintage posters and lobby cards for the flick have been walled. De Niro, Alba, Cheech, Johnson, Rodriguez…even Machete himself Danny Trejo are all featured in these stylized new looks. Pretty f*ckin’ badass!
Co-written with Rodriguez by his cousin Alvaro, and co-directed with Rodriguez by Ethan Maniquis – The highly skilled Federale MACHETE is hired by some unsavory types to assassinate a senator. But just as he’s about to take the shot, he notices someone aiming at him and realizes he’s been set up. He barely survives the sniper’s bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin, who has become a priest and taken a vow of nonviolence. If you hire him to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren’t you!
