Here at Movie Ramblings we were pretty big fans of the original Machete, even if it seemed to leave some people disappointed.

Well, the great news for us is that Danny Trejo is back for another instalment, with director Robert Rodriguez having rounded up another stellar cast.

Gone are the likes of Lindsay Lohan and Steven Seagal and in come Amber Heard, Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen and even Lady Gaga – among others.

The trailer promises the usual mix of one-liners and over-the-top carnage, so we have high hopes when this rolls into cinemas in September.
