Trivia
Not a single scene has been shot indoors.

Goofs
Sam is firing an M1 Garand, chambered in either .30 '06 or .308 (It's a sporterized version). Despite using such a heavy caliber, he demonstrates almost no recoil from his shots. Worse, he makes shots at distances that would likely only hit their target if he was in a prone (laying down) rather than a standing or kneeling position.

Quotes
Sam: [putting his rifle down] Welcome to the land of the free.

The hunting party

Terrific experience here this movie which is a sort of mix-up between Don Medford's HUNTING PARTY and BEYOND THE REACH, released last year and starring Michael Douglas. But beware, BEYOND THE REACH is far far far lesser than this pure jewel from Mexico. Do not even dare to compare the two features, except for the basic script line, that's all. A brutal, powerful piece of work, folks. But I admit that I would have preferred a different ending, such as the one you had in HUNTING PARTY, back in 1970. THIS WAS AN ENDING.

But nevertheless, this movie is awesome. In the last fifteen minutes, I felt my heartbeat as a war drum.

Serious.

Go for it...
