These Faux Filmmakers Get To Check Out Machete For Their Efforts
Wow… no one can possibly question the fact that the winners of this MACHETE contest truly earned their way into some tickets for this advance screening. You got the creative juices flowing, your twisted love of movies… ummm… twisting, and, in creating some ridiculously fresh ideas for what you would love to put together into a Grindhouse-style, exploitation B-movie, I was absolutely blown away by some of your concepts. By the way, who knew everyone desperately wanted to work with Steven Seagal at this point?
From the more bizarre (cuban sandwiches, anyone?) to the more realistic to the ones that might actually feature someone truly named Tammy Gunns (partial credit is being awarded for an A+ story), these winners jumped through some serious hoops, and, for their remarkable efforts, they find themselves on the winners’ list for The Kidd’s MACHETE contest.
And, because it would be a waste for only me to enjoy them, you’ll get to check out their full ideas, too.
It’s showtime.

THE LINE-KEEPER
Starring Sean Penn as Ben Goldman, Megan Fox as Katterina Vakhrushko, Betty White as Hilda Stein, Jerry Stiller as Frank N. Stein, George Lucas as Jorge Lucas, and Michael Cera as Jimmy
Ben Goldman is a quiet, sophisticated and frugal accountant by day but huge movie buff at night. He loves to attend free movie screenings. He gets tickets from the beautiful Russian movie critic Katterina Vakhrushko. He met her at work when she came in to do her taxes. They started to discuss movies and became fast friends. She has no idea that Ben would love to be more than friends and make their own unrated movie.
Ben does not like inconsiderate people. He doesn’t like to be #10 in line for the movie but end up as #50 because the senior theatre Capones (better known as sweet-looking Hilda and her hideously ugly husband Frank) save spots in the line for their retirement home friends. Ben found a way of paralyzing that from happening. He invented his own Eye Phone. When he eyes one of these geezers cutting in front of the line, he uses his gadget to silently shoot out a taser bullet. This immobilizes the perpetrator for a minimum of three hours. Jorge Lucas, the theatre manager who takes money from the Steins to turn a blind eye to what is happening, has to deal with the collapsing fogies. People think the person has dropped dead. Ignoring the commotion, Ben goes in to the theatre to enjoy his movie. But first he visits Jimmy, the concession boy, who hooks him up with free popcorn.
How will these old folks put one and one together and realize that there is not cutting in line, no holding spaces in line, and no holding of seats? Ben Goldman, that’s how…

Why do I get the feeling that Mr. Bello is actually using his film as a medium to describe everything he had for lunch last week and/or some sort of horrific bowel movement?
