I was just watching (for the 5th time) Once Were Warrior (anyone see it?)
Major tribal tats within the cast (all Maori).
Any flicks come to your mind on tatted charactors?

I can't believe I forgot all about Danny Trejo.
As far as I know, he's been in over a hundred films, did several years in the joint prior, and tours highschools telling kids the dangers of being in gangs, etc. My favorite quote from him is "it's better to aim for the moon and miss than to aim for the gutter and hit it."
Films include: Desperado, Once upon a time in Mexico, Heat, From Dusk 'til Dawn (1,2, and 3), Con Air, Spy Kids, Anchorman, Devils Rejects, several others in addition to many appearances on TV shows.
