Machete Kills Artwork Released, is Unsubtle

machete kills poster

This is the latest milestone on the odd journey of Machete, with the first artwork to the sequel (of the two planned further films) to the ridiculously over the top 2010 Grindhousesque revenge thriller. While the first film showed that the first film made for a great trailer it’s a little surprising that Robert Rodriguez [...]

The Silence Of The Lambs Added To US Film Archive

Hannibal Lecter

The US Library of Congress maintains the National Film Registry, into which is admitted any film considered to be culturally, historically or aesthetically significant. Despite those criteria being very much in the eye of the beholder, few would question the wisdom of the decision to add Jonathan Demme’s imperious 1990 chiller, The Silence of the [...]

Frank Miller – Jessica Alba’s Nancy Will Tie Sin City Films Together

Nancy Callahan

Honestly, if we had a nickel for every false-start Sin City 2 story we ran, we’d have…..five nickels. Anyway, with news that William Monaghan is now on board to get the script finished, we can only hope that the speculated shooting period of early 2012 will not prove to be another false dawn. Frank Miller [...]

Sin City 2 Welcomes a Departed Arrival

William Monahan

Goodness me, the development of Sin City 2 has been going on forever. There was a time when its entry on IMDb showed “In Production” for a 2010 release, which I think we can all now agree is unrealistic. At Comic-Con in July, Rodriguez said that funding was in place and that shooting would begin [...]

Spy Kids 4 Image Kicks It Old School

Spy Kids 4 Piven Alba

Although most would say that director Robert Rodriguez tends to be at his best when catering for an adult audience (taking Sin City and Desperado in preference to Shark Boy & Lava Girl or Spy Kids), his Spy Kids series has shown surprising longevity, churning good, honest, fun entertainment and turning a healthy profit against modest [...]

Drive Angry 3D Review

Movies that know exactly what they are and what their strengths are endear themselves to me, and the unashamedly raucous and silly Drive Angry (or Drive Angry 3D as it is officially titled) has a highly entertaining B movie heart wrapped in ‘A’ budget and 3D clothes. Reveling in its greasy ’70s occult and road movie exploitation [...]

Have you ‘Heard’ the Red Sonja Casting Rumour?

After a long and protracted development period (which included a version Robert Rodriguez was due to produce with partner Rose McGowan a couple of years back) could a remake of Red Sonja finally be on the cards? The company behind the upcoming Conan reboot, Nu Image, appear to finally have a time pencilled in and [...]

Guitarist, martial artist, conservationist, writer, producer, animal rights activist and all-round renaissance man Steven Seagal is back in the land of direct-to-video, following his first foray onto the big screen in nearly a decade playing (and rather enjoying himself in the process) the main villain in Robert Rodriguez’s recent feature, Machete. The film in question [...]

Machete Review

Robert Rodriguez regular and ex-Folsom prison inmate Danny Trejo (whose lived-in face looks as leathery as his character’s trademark waistcoat) plays the man with the big blades in Tex Mex revenge flick Machete, the director’s return to the big screen following his failed commercial attempt at recreating the Grindhouse experience for a modern audience, and [...]
