Yeah, I saw Rest Stop, which also received a 0.5 on here. And let me tell you - it deserved it! I'm just thankful I borrowed it from someone and didn't waste any money

Wow after hearing that score, I'm glad I never got Rest Stop, doubt I will ever get this movie either.

LOL hilarious review.

Universal Studios would have to pay me to take a copy off their hands

No option for my choice...I'll buy it, when it's under $10.

It's a funny movie in all the wrong ways, it's totally a fun film to throw in on a Sunday afternoon hanging out and chatting with friends.

It's certainly not as good as Showgirls, but it's still a fun film.

Is the Blu-Ray the unrated version?

Ill_Be_Back · 10-20-2012, 10:42 AM

Option 5.....

Whoa, is there an unrated version? I blind-bought this cause: it was 6 bucks & change, assumed it would have lots of nudity or sexy outfits with Pam Anderson, I can enjoy some bad genre movies, espicially when drunk.
Watched last night, knowing it would be bad, but was a little dissapointed. Not as fun as I hoped, only a flash of bare boob, lots of cleavage but not as sexy as hoped. It was an interesting surprise to see Xavier "Django Fett". I thought this would have a bit more sci fi in it. But for the price, I thought it was worth it.

I say kill it with fire!!!

Sounds like the blu is indeed the R-cut by what you just said. Here's what is cut, which sounds like most of the nudity.
I hated this movie back in the day, but have this morbid curiosity to re-visit it now like 15 years later. Guess I'll have to find an unrated dvd. Ironically I never see this in the free bins at the used stores (I have passed on Catwoman from those, 3 times!) and that's about the price point I'm looking for.

But if you just want to see Pam naked, there's no shortage of material. Many Playboy spreads, 2 sex tapes, a couple other bad movies (Snapdragon or Naked Souls) and with the internet, all can be seen with a simple search. You don't have to resort to this movie is what I'm getting at.

Am I the only one who actually read the Barb Wire comics before this abomination of a film came out? I honestly thought the movie had a chance to be alright, before seeing it.

Well, just seeing Pam nude, wasn't it. It was seeing Pam nude in a cheezy sci-fi movie. To the gent above, nice photoshop! I was intentionally spelling "Django" that way as a kind of nerdy joke,...in the Star Wars extras or commentaries, Lucas refers to Boba Fett as "The man with no name", so I figured his naming the character Jango was a deliberate reference to the Django character.

I see there are UK and DE blu-rays listed as "uncut" but I know German releases called "uncut" are often just the R rated version, since they used to cut even more than the Americans. The run-time is listed as shorter here, which could be an error, but a SHORTER version with MORE NUDITY (or violence even) would be a good thing, as it was a bit of a slog to sit through this. Has anyone seen these blus?
EDIT: translated a user review for the German BD and it is the R version. Doesn't look like there's an uncut one out there, anyone know?

rocknblues81 · 12-05-2016, 04:10 AM

I think I had this on VHS, but I don't think I ever finished watching it. That was in 1995... I sure as hell don't have any desire to finish it in 2016-2017 either.

AmishParadise · 12-05-2016, 05:15 PM

It takes talent to hold that body position for so long not to mention handle the kick from those big guns, really big guns.

Give the girl a break.

I have never seen it, nor do I have any desire to.

None of the blu-rays have the unrated cut, but here are the details of what the differences are (none of them shorten anything):
