 Once Upon a Time in Mexico is a sequel, not a remake of anything.  It is a horrible film that doesn't hold a candle to the other two.

 No, desperado is definately a sequel....just a very similar sequel! Kinda link Escape From New Yourk/Escape from L.A.
The lead character has the busted up hand which he recieved at the end of El Mariatchi.
