Trivia
First feature film ever screened at the Toronto Film Festival which is now the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF).

Errores
The adolescent character portrayed by Ian Tracey is listed in the end credits as Andras Jr. This is incorrect as he is not the son of adult Andras (the character portrayed by Tom Berenger). The two are the same character at different stages of life.

Versiones alternativas
An unrated version six minutes longer than the R-rated version was screened in Quebec. The unrated version later has been released on video in English and also dubbed in French.

Made to fill a niche that no longer exists

Well, this film was made to fill a niche that no longer exists. Like the old B-movies sort of went away when that area fell to television, this film was soft-core before cable channels filled that niche. And, it does so better, having B-list actresses, rather than D-list and former porn actresses. Most of the actresses did really solid work, especially Karen Black, Marilyn Lightstone, and Helen Shaver. Tom Berenger was awkward to the point of being painful to watch, but I doubt that it is due to bad acting. That is almost certainly the director's vision. The dialogue was also painfully awkward, but that only makes sense. The background of the 1956 Hungarian uprising made for some interest as well. The film is intended to be sexy, so consider that when deciding to view this one.
