    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Dona Speir admitted in her autobiography that she was intoxicated for much of the shoot and subsequently embarrassed by her performance. Despite this, she was well liked by Andy Sidaris and his wife, producer Arlene Sidaris, who offered her the opportunity to reprise her role in the sequel, Picasso Trigger (1988). Speir partially attributes this to her decision to get clean, remaining sober for the duration of the shoot and going on to appear in five more Sidaris films. Speir also credits the Sidarises' support with her remaining sober, as they had a driver on standby at all times to take her to an AA meeting if she felt she might relapse.
    • Goofs
      Jade and Rowdy are in a jeep when the tire is shot out with a shotgun. Somehow Jade is also injured, even though it's clear that the villain only shot at the tire. Additionally, after Jade and Rowdy dispatch said villain and drive off, the tire that was shot out is not flat.
    • Quotes

      Jade: My first wife used to mow the lawn stark naked.

      Rowdy Abilene: What'd your neighbors say?

      Jade: They said I married her for her money.

      Rowdy Abilene: [laughs, pause] Did you?

      [laughs]

    • Crazy credits
      Instead of opticals, all the credits are printed on brown packing paper and stuck on boxes and various items in the warehouse set both during the opening and end credits.

    Worth seeing if only for Dona Speir
    One of the hottest looking "actresses" ever. Lots of nudity, even when they have clothing on they are usually running around and wear very sexy outfits so it's still pretty cool. Despite the obvious appeal because of the babes, this movie is filled lots of action and is fun too watch. Not exactly on the level of Citizen Kane, but hey who cares, Orson Wells never looked this good!
