Hello everybody  ! I wanted to compare this two kickass heroes of seventies B-movie parodies, before who anyone would bow  . The first film dates from 2009 and is directed by Scott Sanders. It's an homage to the blaxploitation. Black Dynamite (played by Michael Jai White) is the most funky and also the most 70's, I think. The other one dates from 2010 and is dircected by Robert Rodriguez. Machete (played by Dany Trejo) is the most badass -of all time-, more in the line of Rodriguez/Tarantino's double feature so maybe more an action B-movie. But the two are as much as grindhouse! No without difficulties, I choose Black Dynamite which is incredibly successful (doesn't mean famous). I think that any fan of the 70's would love this film so I reccomend it highly to the members of this site! If you don't know this movies, there's a fortaste  : |

| I really didn't like Machete, and I would need to have seen Black Dynamite in order to judge it. So for now.. no vote. |

Ahaha! I love your comment  , this scene is great! The best is the one where April Benz and her mother are in the swimming pool  (with the soundtrack of "machete machete machete machete!"). Thanks for your posts guys |

Machete could be better... but the scene with the gut-rope is classic! And no one released Black Dynamite in Brazil yet! Hey, why don't make a poll with Hobo with a Shotgun too? ------------- "Prog is Not Dead and never has been." (Will Sergeant, from Echo And The Bunnymen) |
