Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Before Gus takes Kathy underground, he yells to Sean, "I'm gonna fuck her!" and repeats it two more times, but the MPAA strongly advised the makers of the movie to dub out the word "fuck" at that scene because they felt that it was wrong for an adult male to say that he was going to have sex with an underage girl. Instead, Cliff Gorman's quote was fixed for him to say, "I'm gonna keep her." more

If you like non stop action and wide excitement, then this movie is for you! You will NOT be leaving your seat to get popcorn! James Brolin does some of his best acting in this movie. Your heart will be ripped from your chest each and every time he gets so close, and fails! This is a sleeper movie. It just didn't get any press.
