Kicking criminal butts and taking the law into his own hands, Danny Trejo (Machete, \u201cSons\"\"<\/a> of Anarchy\u201d) ignites the screen in the gritty, violent and enthralling film Bad Ass, arriving on Blu-ray and DVD June 5 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

But his good fortune suddenly turns for the worse when his best friend Klondike is murdered and the police aren\u2019t doing anything about it.<\/p>\n

Directed by Craig Moss (The 41 Year Old Virgin Who Knocked Up Sarah Marshall And Felt Superbad About It), Bad Ass is inspired by the Epic Beard Man video that captured two men\u2019s highly charged verbal and brutal physical altercation on a public bus in Oakland, California.
