Great movie and the first, although very short, movie appearance of 2Pac!
Such a great film!
I watched like 60 percent of the movie at a friend’s house when I was pretty young. Maybe 8-10 years old? Shit creeped me out so hard. Pretty sure I had a couple fucked up nightmares from it. I’ve thought about going back to watch it as an adult since the cast is so awesome. But I’ve heard it’s still mostly just fucking weird, rather than good. That sound about right?
There really is a film to go with the picture?! I was just trying to imagine what the plot could be! Some kind of Indiana Jones/Big Trouble in Little China style action with a crooked judge blackmail scenario…
Ha! There’s something about certain styles that tell you exactly what to expect.
One thing I noticed when I last watched Big trouble was how it took 5 seconds to introduce each character and their back story before getting on with the action…no messing about!
Yes, but instead of Kurt Russel trying to imitate John Wayne, it’s Chevy Chase… well, being Chevy Chase.
There are several good stories on the making of, but holy crap was that a scarring experienced for any kids unfortunate enough to be brought to a Chevy Chase//Candy/Ackroyd “comedy”. https://filmschoolrejects.com/nothing-but-trouble-is-weird/
I remember catching pieces of this on tv as a young kid and being thoroughly confused and disturbed. The imagery sticks with you for sure though.
Boris painted this, so where are all the women on dinosaurs‽
