    Storyline

    Edit
    Expert stuntman Glen Wilson is called in to finish stunts for a movie plagued by production problems. It turns out that his younger brother Greg, also a stuntman, was killed in an accident during filming or so it seemed. En route to the shooting location, he picks up B.J. Parswell, an ambitious journalist who's doing a story on stuntmen. Things get hairy when his stuntmen pals are getting killed one by one during the stunts. —Jmac1988

    • Trivia
      As of 2019 the hotel featured in the film, the Madonna Inn, is still operating and is largely unchanged.
    • Goofs
      When Greg Wilson attempts the helicopter stunt at the beginning of the film, there is a black winch apparatus visible in the back of the helicopter. When the helicopter lands after Greg's fall, the hold of the helicopter is empty. The winch returns for for Glen's attempt, and is visible throughout.

      [last lines]

      B.J. Parswell: A very impressive ending.

      Glen Wilson: Just like in the movies.

    • Crazy credits
      Because of the theme of this movie being movie stunts and because of the importance of it to the movie within the movie, the stuntmen are listed in both the opening and closing credits. The opening credits include the following phrase after the primary cast: "Featuring the Stuntmen" before the stuntmen's names are listed.

    Entertaining!
    I have seen this one many times, every time I enjoy it, simple good story, good acting, stunts in stunts, beautiful women, Fiona Lewis, Joanna Cassidy and Candice Rialson. And, a very special presence, the unique face of Richard Lynch, great personality, even in a secondary role. Nice music, and great end..."just like in the movies" Well done!

    FAQ2

    • Who turned out to be the killer?
    • I watched an interview on a tv show once, where the stuntman claimed to be the one that fell from the airplane, and survived!! Any ideas who this stuntman was?
