Charlie Sheen is the Prez and Mel Gibson Has a Heart in New 'Machete Kills' Pics


Most of the time it's hard to get a sense of what a film is all about just by gawking at a few still images. The vast majority are intentionally designed to be as vanilla as possible (like today's images from The Counselor) so as not to give anything away. Robert Rodriguez doesn't seem all that concerned about it, though, and when it comes to Machete Kills he wants you to know up front just how crazy sh*t is going to get.

A silly/awesome new poster has been released, along with a bunch of pics that are just ridiculous. We get our first good look at Mel Gibson, typecast as the madcap villain of the piece, a billionaire with plans of starting WWIII. We also get the chilling shot of Charlie Sheen aka Carlos Estevez as the POTUS; the gorgeous Amber Heard as Miss Santonio; and Michelle Rodriguez undercover and sporting a new look. The big question is probably "Why the f**k is there a heart in a blender?", and why does Gibson look like he's about to take a bite out of it ala Temple of Doom?

The insanity of Machete Kills begins on October 11th.
