    • Trivia
      The movie's lead character, Claude Barbee, is actually named after the real life Texas outlaw who killed a Deputy in a gunfight on a west Texas ranch in the early 1900's. Barbee, whose brother was a Texas Ranger, fled before being captured, but escaped. He was pursued by Pat Garrett at one point, but gave the lawman the slip and made it out to California, where he lived under an assumed name until he died in 1949.
    • Goofs
      Towards the end of the movie, Slap was shot by the Sheriff in the side of the ribs. When Sweet Tooth takes out the bullet, the bullet hole is up in his left shoulder.
    • Quotes

      Claude 'Sweet Tooth' Barbee: On the Enchanted Rock segment that had been deleted. I'm afraid it's gonna be damn near impossible for an outlaw to make an honest living.

    Nice correspondence
    This is a real nice western, if you can get past the fact that we'rent in the 2000's. Then you will do fine, i think its awesome they tried to enact actual gunslinger emotions rather than try out some transformer-"stuff".

    I have to say, these guys are on a drama-level.I haven't heard about any of them but i have to say i was pretty impressed with their performances:).

    i very much enjoyed the movie!

    Hmpf. OK.

    Im not gonna give you a poem!
