</a>Danny was on set this weekend in Groveland, Florida at the <a href="http://www.kahanastunts.com/">Kim Kahana Stunt Ranch</a> shooting several scenes from the film, fresh from an appearance at the local horror convention, <a href="http://spookyempire.com/">Spooky Empire</a>. <br />
<br />
"Having Danny in the film just takes it to another level," commented Producer Jay Lavely. "He's Machete -- but he transcends the genre because he's also a great dramatic actor and has comedic appeal as well from his work on the Spy Kids films."<br />

Bazala also added that "Danny's got to be once of the nicest, most gracious actors in the business." Bazala also said Trejo was "extremely complimentary" and put the entire crew at ease, shooting around his tight schedule for the weekend.<br />

We really appreciate all of the enthusiasm you brought with you. <br />

BREAKDOWN: (all ethnicities welcome)<br />
<br />
<b>MARISSA</b> (20) Exotic good looks and oozing sexuality. She has a fascination with Comics, Horror and the Occult, and thinks goth girls are poseurs. Must be physically agile and able to be rigged for levitation stunt. A young Angelina Jolie type.<br />
<br />
<b>BILLY</b> (20), tall, athletic and handsome former high school football star. His varsity jacket is his prized possession. A real cocky ass with limited aspirations. Must be comfortable with fights and stunts. -- Requires brief appearance with no shirt.<br />
<br />
<b>SKY</b> (18), a pretty, curvy but awkward girl who doesn't seem to fit with the others. She is Billy’s rebound girlfriend with very little self-respect. Obsessed with texting and her iPod. -- Requires brief appearance in bra and panties (Possible brief partial nudity. Negotiable)<br />
<br />
<b>KAYA</b> (19), an attractive former cheerleader. She realizes she is hanging out with losers, but they’re the only friends she has left after HS.<br />
<br />
<b>SEAN</b> (18) athletic and good looking. Billy’s former teammate. Typical former jock flunking out of community college.<br />
<br />
<b>TROY</b> (19), non-athletic with a mess of hair. Has few prospects for a career beyond his job at the local video store.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>CARETAKER</b> (50+) A curmudgeonly cemetery caretaker. We are looking for strong character types who can play both crotchety and comedic, without being too campy.<br />
<div><br />
</div><br />
We are also in need of several actors to play <b>ZOMBIES</b>. If you are interested in being a zombie, please specify that in your inquiry. Serious inquiries only.
