The movie's production began in 1984, but [[DevelopmentHell work continued]] until 2005, when it ran for a week in a few theaters in Los Angeles to very little fanfare. It received a DVD and Blu-Ray combo release in 2015 from Drafthouse Films, where it has since become known as SoBadItsGood due to the utter quirkiness of the film. It has been featured on WebVideo/RedLetterMedia's ''WebVideo/BestOfTheWorst'' and spotlighted by WebVideo/TheCinemaSnob as a Patreon suggestion episode.

* OffScreenTeleportation: The police chief in his chase of Black Pepper somehow appears on the top of a very large hill in under 20 seconds (with his car parked) [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight Black Pepper doesn't skip a beat and simply keeps slowly running away]]
* RandomEventsPlot: The plot is borderline incomprehensible. The movie begins with a couple that have nothing to do with the plot and never appear again. Then it becomes a RapeAndRevenge plot, which transforms into a serial killer plot. Then it becomes a crime investigation into the serial killer, which somehow becomes an investigation into a criminal biker gang whose only connection to the killer is that two of their members were victims of her and her fiance.
* RapeAndRevenge: What the first half of the movie consists of. It then derails when Mina starts murdering people she gives her consent to.
