ANTONIO BANDERAS was once forced to use the sword he took home from his first ZORRO film to scare off an intruder at his Hollywood home.

The Spanish hunk reached for his blade when he found himself home alone and heard someone trying to break into the house he shares with wife MELANIE GRIFFITH and their kids.

But he then had to act fast to make sure he was clothed by the time police arrived at the scene.

Griffith recalls, "I was out of town with the kids and he was home alone, sleeping, naked... and there was an intruder in our yard.

"He grabbed the sword and nothing else and he scared them (intruders) away.

"The police came and he was dressed by then."

Naked, eh? Which sword scared the intruders?

no prizes guessing which one eh

I would hope that his "little" sword wasn't awake; but I suppose his blood was pumping from chasing the Burglers!
