As a young lad I had the opportunity to see this "film", and allthough it had nothing compared to Tales from the Crypt, or Twilight Zone - hell, The Hitchiker was better - but I still thought that the plot in each story still had an edge...just that it wasn't that sharp...and it still managed to capture and hold that strange feeling when you don't know if you should laugh out loud, turn it off and something worth while, or maby just see it for what it is - A movie that's very idea (as so many have) that it IS bad. After all, just about everyone likes to trash a movie now and then just for fun...

This is by far the best action/gang/when-the-sh*t-hit-the-fan movie I have ever seen! I'm to young to have seen it when it came, but I have always had an eye out for the picture on the front, and I remember asking my mom if I could rent it, but of course, I didn't really have any idea what it was then. The brilliance in this film according to me is the fact that they havn't focused all their energy on making the characters, or for that matter any one in the movie, out to be hardcore dead serious and strickly reality. As of course you see in some of the costumes and make-up. But that's probably what's so good about it. And those kinds of fighting scenes seem to belong to a long forgotten era of movie violence, computer techniques and martial arts just doesn't have that feeling! To the end there is one more point that will allways make this kind of movies good: Practicly no one of the characters has made it big after that, I'm sure that most people my age (20) won't recognize any of the actors. Maby the only one would be "Cleon", who also plays LaFayette in Hair?....
