The film:

  • Awesome Music: It's Claudio Simonetti with arguably his finest score outside of his work as a member of Goblin. The main theme in particular would not have sounded out of place in a contemporary dance club.
  • Complete Monster: Colonel Brian Horne is a disgraced US soldier and former right-hand of Jim Jones himself, with the indication Horne personally came up with the idea of the Jonestown massacre while fleeing the scene himself. In the present day in Venezuela, Horne indoctrinates a local tribe of savages into a cult while having them come down in a wave of mutilation, rape, and horrific slaughter onto cocaine plantations all across the region with countless dozens killed and ravaged. Horne's ultimate intention is to seize control of the cocaine industry and purge the weak of the world through a wave of terror and dominance.
  • Narm: Quecho's demise with him covered in foam looks rather silly.

The novels:

  • Alternative Character Interpretation: Zane's characterization in book one. Guy with a lot of issues trying to get better, or complete Jerkass who treats Ty like crap?
  • Broken Base: Fans seem to be divided on whether or not the first book is good, or even enjoyable. Many see it as an unfortunate stepping stone to get to the rest of the series.
  • Fan Nickname: Fans have taken to calling the remaining members of Sidewinder and Zane Garrett "Zanewinder."
