@overkillll Are you sure that wasn't an acid flashback? Jesus, that sounds awful!

@TheDeJureTour Yes, it does. His directorial skill never wavered, even with some dubious screenplays. He was still at pretty peak powers at the time of this picture, and I think if he had directed it, it would be some kind of action classic. (As it is, it's not bad, but Robert Aldrich peaked with THE DIRTY DOZEN, and his slide was painful to watch.) Peckinpah was also briefly involved with DELIVERANCE, but it's hard to see how he could have improved on THAT. (Interesting to think about, tho)

@MrDoubtfulguest Ahhhh, Sam Peckinpah.......now that invokes greatness.

I hopped freights in the early 80's, and my pals and I would playfully quote this picture; nice to see it's remembered. (We had great fun, btw, LOTS of interesting characters) Before you jump on board, be aware that some weird shit started going down on the rails by the nineties, so be careful before inspiration takes you to someplace you hadn't counted on. (Sam Peckinpah was briefly involved in the development of this picture; I can only imagine how great it would have been had he directed it)
