Quotes

Eddy: Oh. Somebody's always doin' somebody wrong. On that radio.
Toni: Oh, cheer up. At least you're not going to jail.
Eddy: Right.
Toni: What's on your mind?
Eddy: I was ready to explode, when you were on my lap.
Toni: Oh, is this the sweet-talking stage?
Eddy: You kill me.
Toni: You're turning me on.
Eddy: You're wild.
Toni: I'm ready.

Alternate Versions

In the ABC version, the sex scene with Eddy and Toni is seriously edited. They only show a brief portion of it and no actual nudity is shown. This version also cuts part of the scene in which she is putting in a tampn while handcuffed to Rock. This version does not have her say, I've never done this handcuffed to a man before. Kinda sexy don't you think."

User Reviews

Memorable soundtrack .... forgettable film ...............

"Chasers" vacillates wildly between military drama, and frat slobs on vacation silliness. There is a steady slide downhill in believability. The acting is only average, and the script well below that. Nevertheless, the movie is watchable, mainly because of the interesting supporting cast. The best scenes are with Gary Busey, Crispin Glover, and Dennis Hopper. The real problem is that the film doesn't have a flow, with sex scenes giving way to cartoon-like silliness, kung fu fighting, and ridiculous romance. I suppose if you can throw logic out the window, there might be enough here to interest some, but that's a long shot at best. - MERK
