We've seen a lot of movies this week here at Fantastic Fest, but there's one in particular we'd like to spotlight for fans of pulpy, sexy action fun: Bring Me the Head of the Machine Gun Woman (2012) from Chilean director Ernesto Diaz Espinoza. Bring Me the Head... captures the "anything can happen" spirit of classic exploitation better than anything we've seen since Hobo with a Shotgun (2011).

Espinoza is a specialist in what he calls "LatinXploitation", low-budget movies about assassins and vigilantes shot guerrila-style on the streets of Santiago. His use of '70s style graphics and AfterEffects "film grain" isn't unique in the Grindhouse (2007) school, but in Bring Me the Head... he adds a fun new element. The film is structured like a game of Grand Theft Auto, down to the matching font on the title cards that begin each new "mission," a schtick that keeps the film moving at a brisk, exciting pace.

Bring Me the Head... is the story of a hapless nightclub DJ who stumbles his way into a very dangerous mission: apprehending the assassin known as the Machine Gun Woman, played by Chilean TV star Fernanda Urrejola, in only 24 hours. The stunning, machine-gun toting Fernanda (left) is a masochist's wet dream in this movie. She spends the entire film clad in a latex bra, hot pants, fishnet stockings, and spike-heeled stripper boots as she shoots, stomps and seduces her way from the bloody opening to the even bloodier climax. When Fernanda deep-throated a gun 32 minutes into the movie, an audible shudder ran through the theater.

And if that's not enough for you, Paloma Scheider and Salome Silva toplessly tango in a nightclub six minutes in, and at the Q&A Espinoza revealed that he had shot over an hour of topless tango footage for that one scene. You're all right by us, Ernesto!

Bring Me the Head of the Machine Gun Woman is currently on the film festival circuit, so if a screening pops up at a theater near you, we can guarantee you this: if you're a regular reader of this website, you'll love this movie.
