1	* BestKnownForTheFanservice: Creator/PatriciaTallman gets some very well-remembered nude and SexySweaterGirl scenes.
2	* CultClassic: Diehard fans of Romero's ''Film/LivingDeadSeries'' and other work (not to mention other moviegoers) can go a long time without ever hearing of this movie. Nonetheless, the film's unique premise, good action scenes, and emotionally powerful story and characters cause many people to praise it as a truly brilliant work that's just waiting for its overdue recognition. The fact that it features Creator/KenForee, Creator/TomSavini, and Scott H. Reiniger, who were highly associated in the Living Dead Series in featured roles also helps draw viewership from those that have only seen the actors in zombie-related fare.
3	* EnsembleDarkHorse:
4	** LipstickLesbian: ActionGirl Dame Rocky and BunnyEarsLawyer camp doctor Merlin may not have their own subplots, but are two of the film's best-liked characters.
5	** The mysterious Native American challenger turned troupe member takes a while to show up and has no name or dialogue, but is still a very popular character.
6	** Bagman TheStoner may mostly get overshadowed by other members of the troupe for much of the film, but when he does get a couple of powerful {{Rousing Speech}}es, they make him stand a lot higher in the eyes of the fans.
7	** Friar Tuck may not be much more than the PluckyComicRelief, but few people have anything bad to say about how well he handles that role.
8	* FairForItsDay: The film has a sympathetic view of homosexual couples, their mixed opinions about staying in the closet, and how they can diverge from gay stereotypes (Pippin isn't CampGay, Rocky isn't a ButchLesbian), but some fans take minor issue with how the only lesbian character is the only girl who takes part in the motorcycle stunts along with the men and how the gay men are among the minority of named male members of the troupe who do not ride motorcycles.
