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.

You can check it out here below.

Director Robert Rodriguez and Danny Trejo introduce the trailer in Spanish and the narrator speaks the same language throughout the trailer, but fret not you proud hablantes de inglés because the rest of the trailer doesn’t require a Babel fish in your ear to understand. It’s a surprisingly bloodless preview, but Rodriguez is still bringing the crazy like gangbusters. A little violence here, some very pretty women there, and it’s all rounded off by a special appearance by Charlie Sheen as the President of the United States. He’s credited as “Carlos Estevez,” which all of you trivia buffs will recognize as Sheen’s birth name.

Hello There! This is Adam Frazier and you are listening to Skull-Face Island, the official movie podcast of Geeks of Doom! As always I’m joined by the Ann Lewis to my Alex J. Murphy, David Allen… and ladies and gentlemen, he has numerous concerns spread across this state and many wells flowing at many thousand barrels per day – he likes to think of himself as an oilman… producer Tim Grant.

Today on the Show: We’ll discuss Harmony Korine‘s latest film, Spring Breakers, and boot-up the Geek-O-Matic TeleFax for all the latest news on James Mangold‘s The Wolverine, and Jonathan Liebsman‘s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles reboot. We’ll also play The Sequel Game – where two men must make up sequels to classic films on the spot to appease The Mighty Tu’Challa.

Last Time on Skull-Face Island: Faithful robotic butler Mar-10 took Adam on a magical, mysterious journey to Austin, TX, to fulfill his destiny by visiting the South by Southwest Film Festival. David, worried that he may have inadvertently killed Adam using a voodoo doll, is searching the island for his lost companion. During all of this, Tim was drunk and hallucinating after drinking two-too-many Skull-Face Island Iced Teas…

Today’s Episode: We find Adam safe and sound in Austin, TX, where he is attending movies at SXSW. Mar-10 left to take care of some robot business, but gave Adam a special two-way radio to communicate with Tim and report his experience.

We join Adam now as he contacts Tim with mini-reviews of Spring Breakers, starring Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, and James Franco, as well as Mitchell Altieri‘s Holy Ghost People. We’ll also check-in on David’s Adventure: The Mystery of the Missing Adam….

Spring Breakers
Director: Harmony Korine
Screenwriter: Harmony Korine
Cast: James Franco, Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson, Rachel Korine, Gucci Mane

“Pretend like it’s a video game…”

Holy. Shit. Throw Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers and Nicolas Winding Refn’s Drive into a blender with ice and add a few gallons of bottom shelf booze and you’ve got the cinematic mindfuck that is Harmony Korine‘s Spring Breakers.

No offense to Fede Alvarez’s Evil Dead, but Spring Breakers felt like the real “event” film of the festival this year. Korine’s dangerous, hypnotic cocktail of self-indulgence is a shallow study of shallow things.

A new international red-band trailer for Harmony Korine‘s Spring Breakers had debuted online. Check out the new trailer here below.

Spring Breakers centers on four young college girls (Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, Ashley Benson, and Rachel Korine) who rob a liquor store so that they can experience Spring Break in MTV fashion. After being apprehended by the authorities, a sleazy rapper named Alien (James Franco) bails them out and promises to keep the party going just as long as they use the very talents that got them in trouble in the first place.

This new trailer doesn’t offer too much, if anything the first trailer one set the bar pretty high. There are a couple of scenes where drug use, vulgar language, and violence is more prevalent than its predecessor, but I suspect that they are saving the best for the full film. Let’s not forget the fact that there’s sex in this film too, as the movie is set during Spring Break after all.
