Promo Posters for Sin City 2 and Machete Kills

The first promo posters for Robert Rodriguez' two upcoming sequels, Machete Kills and Sin City 2, have been released. The posters may be a little bit too simplistic - containing nothing but the text and some stylistic layouts - but they work well enough given the fact that there's probably very little to put in the posters for now, with but movies still not finished with production.

The Machete Kills poster gives a nod to its grindhouse origins, with a spackled, peeling image with blood spatters and grime. The whole poster certainly fits in with the tone and look of the film.The poster for Sin City 2: A Dame To Kill For is a bit more stylish, owing to the source material's noire roots.

Both Rodriguez films are expected to arrive in 2013.
