It’s St. Patrick’s Day, and the folks at Gravitas Ventures thought today would be the perfect time to unveil the trailer for their upcoming comedic superhero / anti-hero action movie Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone, which stars the legendary Danny Trejo (Machete himself) and features an otherworldly emerald. And we agree! That’s why we here at Arrow in the Head are proud to share the EXCLUSIVE first look at the trailer. Check it out in the embed above!
The film is scheduled to reach select theatres on April 29th.
Directed by Michael D. Olmos (Windows on the World), Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone was made “in the style of comedy horror martial arts movies of the 1970s and ’80s” and is filled with adventure for the entire family. It was produced by David R. Rodriguez.
Trejo is joined in the cast by Charlie Clark (Pepe & Santo vs. America), Sofia Pernas (Age of the Dragons), Kuno Becker (Goal! The Dream Begins), Renee Victor (Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones), Marko Zaror (From Dusk Till Dawn: The Series), Cain Velasquez (Kickboxer: Vengeance), Jesse Garcia (Narcos), and Elpidia Carrillo (Predator).
Clark wrote the film as a love letter to his Nana (Mexican Nanny). Here’s the synopsis:
In a Texas border town, car salesman Charlie (CHARLIE CLARK) moonlights as a masked Lucha libre wrestler going by the name “Green Ghost.” When unknown assailants arrive seeking an otherworldly emerald, Charlie discovers that he has super powers. As he learns to fight from the unconventional Master Gin (action film legend DANNY TREJO), Charlie is told that he’s part of a secret warrior “triad of light” with his childhood friend Marco (KUNO BECKER) and Marco’s sister Karina (SOFIA PERNAS) led by La Nana (RENEE VICTOR). Together, they’ve been chosen to protect humanity from Drake (MARKO ZAROR), the embodiment of the Mayan apocalypse. As a stargate is opened in a Mexican pyramid, Drake seeks the power to destroy humankind — and Charlie, linked to the power of the emerald, is the only one who can stop him. Charlie must harness both his physical and mystical strength to save humanity and go from Gringo to Green Ghost.
