Earlier today, Robert Rodriguez released his “illegal” trailer for MACHETE. It’s a celebration of Cinco de Mayo, film savvy and that crazy fucked up shit going on in Arizona.
Cross the border and view the trailer with us:
What it is
What was Robert Rodriguez’s trailer inside the tribute to grindhouse cinema, GRINDHOUSE, became a real movie in a little over 3 years.
What We Learned
Ain’t it Cool reports:
Rodriguez is calling this his “Illegal” trailer. You see, Robert talked Fox into letting him put together a Cinco De Mayo message for ARIZONA – given. Well, the way things are in Arizona at this moment – it is kinda insane that there is a movie that was shot over a year ago waiting to be released that is about – THIS EXACT ISSUE… but if, Danny Trejo and buddies went Revolution Wacko as a result.
What We Saw
Mexploitation a-go-go. It looks a lot like love.
Why We’re Gonna Watch
We watch anything Robert Rodriguez makes as long as it’s not labeled SPY KIDS or SHARK BOY AND LAVA GIRL.
When’s it coming?
A USA release is set for September 3rd, 2010.
