    • Trivia
      Given the fact that Anderson Ballesteros did a great job portraying a tough hitman with street knowledge, all the roles he got later were pretty much the same, for example, playing as Pablo Escobar's main hitman on "El Patrón del Mal"
    • Quotes
      • Fernando: You can't live without sex. People go crazy without sex. Look how nutty the Pope's become. Spouting crap everywhere and kissing floors. Saying that homosexuality and all that is a sin. That's a sin? Having kids is a sin! There's no space left, the Planet will explode!
