Machete

Posted: September 3, 2010 at 6:24 am   /   Featured, Local, Movie Reviews

Based on the faux-preview shown inbetween “Planet Terror” and “Death Proof,” Robert Rodriguez’s “Machete” does exactly what it aims to do.

Steve Kelley Reviews “Machete” Starring Danny Trejo

Posted: September 3, 2010 at 12:47 am   /   Film, Local

Holy s***. Pretty sure that’s what they should have titled this movie, because that’s what I heard people uttering the most throughout the film.
