Bring Me the Head of the Machine Gun Woman, also known under its original release title of Tráiganme la cabeza de la mujer metralleta, is a 2012 Chilean action comedy that was directed by Ernesto Díaz Espinoza. The film had its world premiere on 23 September 2012 at the Austin Fantastic Fest and was released in Chile on 23 May 2013.
Santiago (Matías Oviedo) is an unassuming DJ and gamer that accidentally finds himself overhearing gangster Che Longana (Jorge Alis) and his underlings trying to plan a hit on a bounty hunter known only as "Machine Gun Woman" (Fernanda Urrejola). Upon being discovered Santiago does the only thing he can: he offers to kill Machine Gun Woman and bring back her head to prove that she is truly dead. He decides that the best way to approach the situation is to treat the potential murder as he would a violent video game.
He does manage to find Machine Gun Woman, but Santiago is unaware that Che's underlings have followed him with the intention to kill the both of them. Machine Gun Woman kills both underlings but spares Santiago out of pity. Santiago tries to return home and flee the city with his mother (Francisca Castillo), but is caught by Che, who threatens to murder them both if Santiago does not produce Machine Gun Woman. He manages to successfully find her, but Che again trails them and succeeds in shooting one of them. The two flee together and find that they are both attracted to one another, culminating their encounter by having sex in a jeep. They decide that they will take Che out once and for all, but Santiago forgets to inform Machine Gun Woman of his mother's capture and as a result the operation goes awry. Despite this, Santiago manages to confront Che and with Machine Gun Woman, the two end kill Che. Free from Che's reign of terror, Machine Gun Woman and Santiago share a kiss before she runs off, leaving Santiago alone. Unwilling to accept this, Santiago tries to chase after her in a stolen car but is stopped by the police before he can catch up with her.
