Trivia:

Bad Girls was begun with Tamra Davis directing, but after a few days of shooting, she was replaced by Jonathan Kaplan. The script and all footage shot were scrapped, and a completely new script was written, with new characters and a new plot. Nothing remained of the original project but some (not all) of the leading actresses. Two weeks later, filming resumed.

Goofs:

Crew or equipment visible: When the stage coach comes out of the canyon/gorge, the camera crew and modern vehicles are reflected in the window.

Quotes:

Preacher: [about to hang Cody] I accuse you of harlotry! I accuse you of having a scorpion between your legs that seduces men! I accuse you...
Cody Zamorra: Just get on with it, will ya?

A fun, fast paced movie for all

When I pick a movie to watch there are four elements that draw me to it. The cast, the story line, excitement and most of all I want the movie to be fun to watch. Bad Girls incorporates all four of these elements. The story centers on four former saloon prostitutes who are on the run after one of them shoots and kills a prominent citizen of Echo City. The four girls, Cody Zamora played by Madeleine Stowe, Anita Crown, played by Mary Stewart Masterson, Eileen Spencer played by Andie MacDowell and Lilly Laronette played by Drew Barrymore are great together. The story line may not be totally accurate from a historical standpoint but the action and acting are good and more than make up for whatever may be wrong. For me the story was more about the relationship that existed between the four girls without going over the line and making it sexual. For me, Bad Girls was a winner.
