He’s served hard prison time, kicked drug addiction, and become one of our last existing iconic action stars. What is Danny Trejo going to do now? Go into the restaurant business, that’s what.
Yes, friends, the star of the Machete movies and a prolific tough guy character actor with a filmography longer than your typical neighborhood street is opening his own taco joint in Los Angeles.
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.
Click on over to the other side to check out the red band trailer for Machete Kills. This one is very NSFW. You’ve been warned!
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.
