Viking II is a good way to get your head around Gracias El Gato. If you can handle the bizarreness, the antics and of course the sweet surfing of Viking, Move the Nordic badboys to Mexico .... or was that Italy???? and there you have Bodyboarding's first Spaghetti Western.
For the young 'uns who may never have seen a spaghetti western on the tele, the term evolved in the 1960's where American style Westerns had Italian producers & directors, a varied nationality cast and - classically - some bad dubbing of voices. Their minimal budget. Critics hated it and put it down 'spaghetti western' intended as a derogatory term, but this backfired when a massive and dedicated fanbase emerged, becoming almost cult-like in its following.


Characters:
Banished to a foreign world with only one way out: to shoot his way out. James Cayley is.... himself.
Thomas Robinson is ‘The gypsy'
Dodgier than a used car salesman: ‘The Cheat', starring none other than James Kates.
A damsel of deception, Mexico's Romina Aranzola is ‘The Temptress'.
Fast tongued and hot blooded: Gun-toting Elliot Morales Santana is the ‘The Spaniard'.
Frank Cayley. Father to James Cayley and former member of UK band Radio Birdman at his bass wielding best as ‘The Old Man'.
Jase Finlay is The Swindler

And like any big budget film with massive stars - there's a trailer to get you psyched TRAILER

Keep an eye on the movie's blog stokemachine.tumblr.com for updates and release news.
get ready for a mind-bending & very fun time.
