    • Quotes

      [upon seeing that his challenger in a duel is a woman]

      Lee: This ain't fair.

      Mick: You're right. It ain't.

    • Crazy credits
      How actors are listed in the end credits depends on the fate of the character they played, such as "John Stockwell IS Lee," "Dean Devlin WAS Ernie."

    What the...?
    I'm so mad at this movie. The plot was absent. The acting was awful. The sound was unintelligible. I can't believe that this came out the same year as Back to the Future! Poor James Earl Jones! Poor me! There was a montage in the middle of the thing that referred back to things that were apparently cut out of the film. The costumes were cheesy, and the hair--don't get me started on the hair! You know, I do kind of enjoy a B movie, but I need something to chew on. Some fixed reference point--like a character name or something. I mean, even the credits were inept...they lasted for about 15 minutes and were filmed in irritate-o-rama--a cheesy stop-frame thing. I've had more enjoyable infections.
