For those that don't know, Machete is a feature length version of a fake movie trailer included in the Grindhouse Double Feature Death Proof/Planet Terror. It's the story of a former agent named Machete (Trejo), who is contracted to kill a U.S. Senator (DeNiro), but is setup, in an attempt to help get the senator re-elected. While trying to survive, he discovers that the man behind it all, is the one who murdered his wife and child.
This is an extremely violent, bloody, gory film. I loved it. There are decapitations, dismemberments, impalements, a crucifixion, and too many gunshot wounds to count.
It's not for those easily offended though. The story seems to mimic a lot of the immigration issues currently in the news, and many characters use racial slang throughout. Oh, and Lindsey Lohan gets naked too.
Rated R, Runtime 105mns
