Machete (2010)
Trailer
Why watch this film?
Directed by Robert Rodriguez ("Sin City: A Dame to Kill For") from the parody trailer featured in "Grindhouse" (itself inspired by the titular character from "Spy Kids"), "Machete" is an absolutely ridiculous movie... and that's the whole point. It's a tribute to the hyper-violent exploitation and B-movie cinema that the director grew up on, taken to its most absurd and delirious extreme with gun-toting priests, motorcycles with machine guns, and very creative uses of a human intestine. Its cartoonish brutality is extremely entertaining to watch, especially when it's applied against xenophobia.

Thriller
La extorsión
A solid Argentine genre film proposal. La extorsión follows a commercial pilot who holds some secrets, which intelligence services start to use against him to extort him and force him to smuggle a suitcase from Argentina to Spain. Naturally, the tension starts to get to him and things get out of hand, in an intense plot with some logic flaws. However, the lead performance by Guillermo Francella (El clan) is, as always, impeccable. If you enjoy thrillers, you're sure to love it.
Death's Roulette
A surprising mix made in Mexico of escape room and horror thriller genres, similar to Saw: juego macabro. In Death's Roulette, we follow a group of seven strangers who awaken trapped in an unknown house. To escape, they have to make an impossible decision: one of them must die, somebody has to agree to it and cannot offer themselves. With time running out to save their lives, the group soon discovers that a dark secret from the past binds them together. Even if it doesn't reinvent the wheel and is a bit predictable, there are interesting twists in the narrative, highlighted by a great cast including names like Maribel Verdú, Adriana Paz and Fernando Becerril. A solid directorial debut for Colombian actor Manolo Cardona, best known for roles in productions such as Narcos and Rubirosa.
