Trivia
Years later, Sylvester Stallone explained why he agreed to appear in this movie, saying, "(Producer) Menahem Golan kept offering me more and more money, until I finally thought, 'What the hell - no one will see it!'" See more »Goofs
In the beginning, when Hawk pulls his truck up to the gate at the military school, the gateman says "deliveries are in back." Hawk is driving a semi without any delivery trailer attached. See more »Quotes

Crazy Credits
An odd prop, specifically a "bucking bicycle" was used in the film. This bicycle was built by Terry Teene, writer and singer of the early 60's monster parody song, "Curse of the Hearse". See more »Soundtracks

Some LOVE this movie. I do. I LOVE the soundtrack. You'll see a million posts from "critics" on here who will look down their nose at this flick. Do you like a movie? WATCH IT! Forget what these morons say about bad cinematography, etc. Movie-makers create films for one reason -- viewers' pleasure (which brings money). Great 80's movie. Period.
