I plan on seeing it after the weekend, once the kids are back in school.

I really like Danny Trejo and Cheech Marin. I’m glad to see Danny finally get a lead role.

Besides, I hear it’s pretty gory. And I like the gore. Just not Al or Tipper.

Other thread has open spoilers though, so if your just looking for how people liked the movie, might be worth it to have people anwer here.

I agree because I haven’t seen it yet.

But not as long as it’s in the wrong forum. Mods?

Awesome, I can’t wait to buy or rent the English-language and/or subtitled version. I say this as someone who’s probably seen “Death Proof” over thirty times. I can’t defend borrowing a version as I did, and I would be more than happy to have Rodriguez and his cast and crew see some good paper from this amusing movie.

Locking this, as there’s a Machete thread in Café Society here:

> **[The "I've seen Machete" thread (giant spoilers ahoy)](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=576949)**
>
> That was a fun way to spend a Friday afternoon. There was a previous thread about the trailer, but this was one of those films where the trailer didn’t do the movie justice. And given the awesomeness of the trailer, that’s quite a surprise. Danny...

If anyone wants to start a non-spoiler thread in CS, go ahead.
