Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone follows Charlie, a car salesman who wrestles at night by the name of “Green Ghost” for Lucha Libre. When he’s encountered by assailants seeking an emerald, he finds out he’s gifted with superpowers and is a member of a “triad of light” alongside childhood friends. The assailants must be stopped in order to protect humanity from the embodiment of the Mayan apocalypse, but Charlie is far from a skilled fighter. Master Gin must teach him his ways.
Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone is available now on digital. It stars Danny Trejo, Charlie Clark, Elpidia Carrillo, Sofia Pernas, Kuno Becker, Renee Victor, Jesse Garcia, and Marko Zaror.
In celebration of its release, we have an exclusive clip to premiere. In the clip, Charlie is trying to sleep while Master Gin drunkenly enters the room. “Why do I have to sleep in here again?” asks Charlie. “Joined at the hip, remember,” replies Master Gin. He then begins playing the piano and singing. You can watch it in full below.

“I like to say a labor of love. I love movies where everybody loves what they’re doing. They’re not jilted… and they’re not divas. They’re just kind of like, ‘I’m in love with this movie.’ I love what I do, and it makes it a lot of fun to work with people like that,” commented Trejo in a previous interview for Green Ghost.
The official synopsis reads: “In a Texas border town, car salesman 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 superpowers. 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 (Becker) and Marco’s sister Karina (Pernas) led by La Nana (Victor). Together, they’ve been chosen to protect humanity from Drake (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. In the style of comedy martial-arts movies of the 1970s and ’80s, director Michael D. Olmos’ Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone is a comedic anti-hero action movie filled with adventure for the entire family.”
