***My favorite John Sayles flick, BTW, is Battle Beyond the Stars.***
If I remember correctly, this is a cheap ripoff of THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN.
I believe he did THE HOWLING years go. On a tv interview he stated he used NON-UNION labor for his films. So, how can he claim to be liberal and do this at the same time!
Cheap but fun. The effects were good for a $2 million dollar flick. James Cameron of Terminator fame did the models for the movie. The DVD is great also.
