As far as I understood, the original trailer that played at the beginning was just a joke clip to play along with the movies as a mock trailer to go along in the style of Death Proof and Planet Terror. The public interest in the clip, and people's demand to see it as a full length feature led them towards making a movie out of Machete. I remember when I first saw the cli myself and thought "fuck i hope that's a real movie". I looked high and low back then and as far as anyone knew at that point, there was never any intention of them making it a real movie.
