In what has to be one of the most disturbing things I’ve ever seen, a baby, fully mustached clone of Danny Trejo‘s Machete character has shown up in a deleted scene on the Blu-ray release of director Robert Rodriguez‘s sequel, Machete Kills.
Having not seen the final film, I can’t say how different this is from the scene they used in the movie, which involves Machete and a villainous Mel Gibson. All I can say is this could cause a nightmare or two, so proceed with caution.
If you happened to catch Machete Kills during its brief theatrical run (and few did – $13.5 million in worldwide box office and it opened at #4 behind Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 in its third week) you might have noticed a “Grindhouse”-style fake trailer for a planned third installment of Robert Rodriguez‘ Tex-Mex action series starring Danny Trejo as a pissed-off former Federale who kills bad people with really sharp objects playing before and after the flick.
Now that trailer has been released online, and you can check out the deranged glory of Machete Kills Again…In Space! here below.
We’ve already seen a trailer for Machete Kills, the sequel to the 2010 Robert Rodriguez flick Machete, but you ain’t seen nothin’ yet.
A new red band trailer for the movie has been released and it is…something to see. This bad boy is full of absurd over-the-top violence—including Machete (played once again by Danny Trejo) sending not one but TWO gentlemen flying into the spinning blades of a helicopter, one via his own insidey parts—Sofia Vergara sporting all kinds of interesting weaponry, and Mel Gibson as one of the movie’s villains doing what he does best: acting a little crazy.

Hola queridos lectores! That means, “Hello dear readers.” Gotta special little treat for you today. The first trailer for Machete Kills is now live and in full, lurid color.
It has been three years since Robert Rodriguez turned his Grindhouse mock 70’s-style Mexploitation trailer Machete into a full-blown feature film that finally gave Danny Trejo, owner of one of the most unique movie star faces in the world, a starring role. Despite having only $10 million, Rodriguez nabbed a galaxy of rising stars and faded stars to back up Trejo and a fistful of positive reviews from B-movie geek fans and critics alike.
Machete earned over $14 million at the box office in its first weekend, but its earning potential quickly plummeted afterwards and by the time it left theaters, the movie had a total gross of $26 million. The end credits promised a forthcoming duo of insane sequels and since the original was profitable enough to warrant one so far, Rodriguez soon found himself at the helm of Machete Kills.
