Machete's Danny Trejo is back. In Bad Ass, decorated Vietnam vet Frank Vega (Trejo) returns home only to get shunned by society leaving him without a job or his high school sweetheart. It's not until 40 years later when an incident on a commuter bus, where he protects an elderly black man from a pair of skin heads, makes him a local hero where he's suddenly celebrated once again. But his good fortune suddenly turns for the worse when his best friend Klondike (Harrison Page) is murdered and the police aren't doing anything about it.
Directed by Craig Moss and penned by Elliot Tishman, the film is scheduled to be released in the US in April but no Australian date has been announced yet.
