Fun Stuff

Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: According to the screen captions, the Starkweather murders took place in Nebraska and Wyoming in late 1957 and early 1958, a time of brutal winter weather. Yet nobody is wearing heavy winter clothing, there is no breath condensation, the trees are green and leafy, and there are bright red flowers in full bloom. The movie was obviously filmed in the late spring or summer. more

Really Bad!, 6 July 2005
1/10
Author: katheegriffith from United States

I lived in Lincoln during the Starkweather era & couldn't believe this movie. First off, there are no cacti & mountains in Nebraska. Even in the 50's Nebraskans didn't talk with southern hick drawls. Also, I've never seen a '48 Ford described as a '55 Chevy. Starkweather was a short (5'8") bow-legged red head that wore very thick glasses. He was a real loser. So was his girl-friend. I thought this might be a good movie but have changed my mind since seeing it. It had the possibility to be one, but was really messed up. I had never heard that Starkweather heard "voices" or saw a "devil" when he was on his rampage. I don't know where that came from. Don't bother watching.
