New ‘Machete Kills’ Red Band Trailer Is Full Of Badass…Kills

As far as Robert Rodriguez’s “Mexploitation” films go, you either love ’em or hate ’em. The Machete character has been around for quite some time in one way or another. Danny Trejo’s character in 2001’s Spy Kids was actually called Isador “Machete” Cortez, but you may recall Trejo all the way back in 1995’s Desperado playing a very similar character and then again in 2003’s Once Upon A Time In Mexico. Some scenes from both those movies were actually more or less re-imagined in the first Machete film from 2010.

Enough about history. Machete Kills, the over-the-top sequel to Trejo’s first lead role as the ex-Federale opens in theaters on October 11, and the new red band trailer that was released is evidence that Rodriguez and co. are once again pulling out all the stops, maybe even more so than the original. With another stacked cast of well-knowns and some of the most ridiculous action imaginable, Machete Kills is sure to be one helluva fun time for movie-goers…that can take it.

View the trailer after the jump which features Machete doing what he does best (not texting) and many appearances from the likes of Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen, Lady Gaga, and Modern Family‘s uber-beautiful Sofia Vergara. Also, a lot of inventions that would seem to have been dreamed up by a 13-year-old with an overactive and or sex-obsessed imagination.
