I'm not even too crazy about the film itself but this is one of his best performances and memorable characters.
shyt is straight
Just a classic, scene stealing performance.
The fake arm
"Are you a Mex-i-can or a Mex-i-can't"
Killing the chef
Undercover whilst wearing a CIA t-shirt
Turning up as a priest doing a Marlon Brando impression
His swag was through the roof.
Apparently Rodriguez basically gave him complete freedom to do what he wanted with the character and I remember there was even talk of giving his character a full film of his own as a blind Zatoichi style gunslinger. shyt would've been better than Machete at least.
