By Robert Rodriguez.

He's also making "Machete" from the fake trailer that aired before his grind house flick.

I'm not sure how anything can be more awesome and manly than Duke dry-shaving in the jungle.

As the trade describes it: “Machete is 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.”

Didn't sound right when I said it but didn't feel like researching.

I hope they do a whole new story.

It fits the Predator mythos that they return to Earth, among other places, to hunt. No need to sully those older movies with your new story just because you want some updated faces.

And actually, just don't fuck with the first one and we'll be fine.
