Star-Heavy Trailer Debut for Robert Rodriguez’s ‘Machete’

Published

on

This is the year Robert Rodriguez gives back to the fans. With Predators opening in July, 20th Century Fox will use the sequel to push Rodriguez and Ethan Maniquis’ Machete for its September 3 release. The flick stars Danny Trejo as the title character, a Mexican ex-Federale with a gift for wielding a blade, who hides out as a day laborer, who is double-crossed by a corrupt state senator. The first trailer available at AICN features a first look at co-stars Michelle Rodriguez, Robert De Niro, Jessica Alba, Cheech Marin, Jeff Fahey and even Lindsay Lohan. The coolest part? How about a custom machete with all the fixins? Think Ash’s chainsaw, only holy fuckin’ sh*t. Oh damn, did I mention a fight scene with Steven Seagal?! What do you guys think?

‘Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire’ Heads Home to Digital Next Week

Less than two months after releasing in theaters, where it has scared up $188 million at the box office, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire is headed home next week, we’ve learned.

First reported by Ghostbusters News, Frozen Empire comes to Digital Tuesday, May 7.

In Gil Kenan’s Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, the Spengler family returns to where it all started – the iconic New York City firehouse – to team up with the original Ghostbusters, who’ve developed a top-secret research lab to take busting ghosts to the next level.

But when the discovery of an ancient artifact unleashes an evil force, Ghostbusters new and old must join forces to protect their home and save the world from a second Ice Age.

The cast includes Patton Oswalt, Kumail Nanjiani, James Acaster, and Emily Alyn Lind, alongside Bill Murray, Finn Wolfhard, Ernie Hudson, Mckenna Grace, Paul Rudd, Celeste O’Connor, Logan Kim, Annie Potts, Dan Aykroyd and Carrie Coon.

Jason Reitman, who directed Ghostbusters: Afterlife, is back to produce Frozen Empire.

Meagan wrote in her review for Bloody Disgusting, “Frozen Empire offers familiar set pieces, references, and easter eggs aplenty, but the nostalgia tank is now running on empty.”

“That may be enough for some, especially when Frozen Empire pulls out some deep-cut nods. But by the time the mid-credit scene kicks in, solely designed to inspire merchandising sales, it’s more likely to leave you ready for the Ghostbusters to retire in peace,” she adds.
