I liked him in animal factory. Actually, i don't really remember him in animal factory. I just like animal factory. Animal factory is a great movie. I think I may watch animal factory tonight.

When Danny Trejo appears in movies and TV shows he only plays a badass. But he really is a badass, thus:
When Danny Trejo mows my lawn, it only takes one minute because he simply threatens the grass into a uniform height and scares the weeds to death.
When Danny Trejo paints my house, he can put on three coats with one brush stroke and his glare causes the paint to dry immediately.
When Danny Trejo tiles my floors, he doesn't use tile; he carves grout lines into the concrete with a fingernail and makes delightful Mexican patterns on the remaining spaces with the blood of infidels.
When Danny Trejo gets paid for all that work around my house, I tell my neighbors to pay him and they smile while they get out their checkbooks, because if there's one thing you want to do it's to make damn' sure that Danny Trejo gets paid.
=======
Damn tootin'!
I once asked Danny Trejo to help me remove a tree stump from my parents' property. It only took a few seconds. He arrived and I pointed to the stump. Danny Trejo simply cast one single glare at it and it crumpled to dust, then the root system coiled itself together and disintergrated. He then went on to smite a bird that shit on his windshield.

I was just watching Heat the other night and said, "Goddamn... that dude is the fuckin man."
"Which dude?" My roommate replies.
"That Mexican dude.. the dude from The Devil's Rejects and Desperado and Anchorman and Once Upon A Time in Mexico and Con Air and Anaconda and..."
"Ok I get it. Shut the fuck up already."
He's fuckin awesome (Trejo, not my roommate).

Danny fucking Trejo. Whenever I mention him to a friend of mine they're like "Who?" I tell them "Oh, you know, the one mexican guy that's in all the movies." Almost always they realize who I'm talking about.

A chipper family man with three kids, Trejo seems far removed from his hard-ass image. So does he take it seriously now? Is this his craft? "Hell, no! But I've seen guys take this stuff way too seriously. I've had to pull a couple of them aside and say, 'Listen, I will beat you to death , I don't know who you think you're talking to.' They go, 'But I'm in character!' And I say, 'Well, your character's about to get his ass beat.'"

He's the ultimate 'THAT GUY.'
When you're watching a movie and say, "Oh, hey, it's that guy!" - 7/10 times it will be Kevin Pollack, Danny Trejo, or Jeremy Piven (pre-Entourage fame).
