Movie Quote(s): Dom: [to Lacey, holds up a fake, bloody leg] Hey, uh, I'm goin' into town for a burger. You want one? Barney: Well, if there's anything I can do for your nose, handsome, give me a call. [leaves, giggles loudy] Dom: Is he a faggot or what? Celeste: I don't know... Dom: I mean, he's changin' all the time, it's crazy. Dom: [after snorting cocaine] It's funny to have your nose cold. Lacey Bickle: Would you like to have sex? Rita: You mean with you or just in general? Dom: [sees Nicky wearing an unbrella hat] Look at that guy over there. Look at that, Gene Kelly should have one of those things. I'm singin' in a bar. Celeste: [laughs] Movie Trivia: Due to a distributor problem, the film never received a theatrical release or home video release. It never aired on television either. The October 2005 Synapse Films DVD release is the film's first official release anywhere in the world. During the scene being filmed in the kitchen, the clapboard that is briefly seen has "Bududa" listed as the production company. This was the actual production company of this film's producers and director, Dusty Nelson, John Harrison and Pasquale Buba. Filmed in 1974.
