Steve D 01/11/2024 There is good reason that it has been forgotten See more 05/17/2019 Fun little B movie, sit back, relax and enjoy. See more 02/22/2014 It is quite a funny picture. It rides on the back of hilarious character actor Mantan Moreland, and offers plenty of one-liners to keep the fast pace going. It is an underrated and unknown gem.
