(The trailer posted here was not an official trailer, it's a fan-made one-- there never was an official trailer. Besides the music used, it's not too obnoxious so I'm using it as the clip.)
Film Facts:
- Sven-Ole Thorsen (The film's villain) has had a long career as "huge stong guy," including roles a dozen Schwarzenegger films. His autobiography, "Stærk mand i Hollywood," (Strong Man In Hollywood) was released in 2007 in Denmark, and the first printing sold out entirely in under 24 hours.
- Marilyn Lightstone, the voice of Abraxas' Answer box, also voiced the evil transforming Porsche "Crasher" on the cartoon "Go-Bots." This will be interesting to the 2 people on earth besides me who can remember anything about the cartoon "Go-Bots."
- Watch for a cameo by Jim Belushi as Principal Latimer.
