Skull and Bones Entertainment to interview Danny Trejo

Skull and Bones Entertainment to interview Danny Trejo in July


Dan "Danny" Trejo is an American actor who has appeared in numerous Hollywood films, most notably in "tough guy" roles as a villain or an anti-hero.


Dan Trejo was born in the Echo Park neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, rejo is the son of Alice Rivera and Dan Trejo, a construction worker. He is a second cousin of filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, though the two were unaware that they were related until the filming of Desperado.


While speaking at a recovery meeting in Los Angeles, Trejo met a young man in the movie business. His newfound friend invited him to the set of Runaway Train where Trejo was offered a job as an extra in the film's prison scenes. Edward Bunker, himself a former convict and well-respected crime author who was writing the screenplay for the film, recognized Trejo, with whom he had done time at San Quentin. It was widely misreported that Trejo was actually serving time in the prison where filming took place. Bunker remembered Trejo's boxing skills, and offered him $320 per day to train Eric Roberts, one of the movie's stars, for a boxing scene. Director Andrei Konchalovsky liked Trejo's work and decided to offer him a prominent role in the film.




Since then, Trejo has become a prolific actor in both films and television, acting alongside some of Hollywood's most famous actors, including Jean-Claude Van Damme, Johnny Depp, Al Pacino, Nicolas Cage, Charles Bronson, George Clooney, John Malkovich, Robert De Niro, Harrison Ford, Val Kilmer, and Antonio Banderas. Trejo has often appeared in five or more movies per year in various genres. Major releases in which he has acted include Machete, Blood in Blood Out, Animal Factory, Bubble Boy, Anaconda, Marked for Death, xXx, Desperado, Once Upon a Time in Mexico, Heat, From Dusk till Dawn, Con Air, Six Days Seven Nights, Spy Kids, The Replacement Killers, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, Predators, Urban Justice, The Devil's Rejects, Valley of Angels, Delta Farce, Grindhouse, Rob Zombie's Halloween and Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror.

Marilyn earned her 'Scream Queen' status by starring in other horror movies; Kiss Daddy Goodbye (1981), Future-Kill (1985). In 1976 she appeared in the TV-movie Helter Skelter (1976) (TV), and her role as Linda Kasabian, the Charles Manson follower whose testimony helped lead to the convictions of the cult leader and many of his followers, was worthy of viewing.

Skull and Bones Invades May-Hem

Skull and Bones Entertainment was able to make a last minute trip down to Spooky Empire’s May-Hem in Orlando last weekend, thanks to our good friend Melissa Benjamin, Food and Beverage Director at Wyndham Worldwide. I (Ashley) was eager to see John Astin, Oliver Robbins, and Joey Lauren Adams just to name a few, Mark was looking forward to meeting Linda Hamilton, and Vivica Fox, and we both were very excited to finally get to meet Caroline Williams. We were also looking forward to attending May-Hem as we were not able to make it last year, and it would be our first time. We knew to expect a smaller show than in October, but other than that we weren’t sure what we’d encounter.
