Trivia
McCarthy (Ward Bond) is labeled as a "blatherskite" in the opening credits. The Oxford Dictionary defines a blatherskite as "a person who talks at great length without making much sense".
Quotes
Joe:
Only Six Shooters that takes five bullets.
Goofs
Joe points his gun at Blick and pulls the trigger. And when it doesn't go off he says "That dumb Tom. He buys a six shooter that won't even shoot once". Even though he knows he loaded and unloaded the gun early in the film. And it happens to be a gun that only holds 5 cartridges.
Crazy Credits
Opening credits are shown on the pages of a book, through which someone is flipping.
