    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Because of the way the movie was shot, Mickey Rourke (Marv) and Elijah Wood (Kevin) never met until after the film was released.
    • Goofs
      When Nancy is dancing, she is alternately wearing/not wearing gloves between shots.
    • Quotes
      • Priest: While you're at it, ask yourself if that corpse of a slut is worth dying for.
      • Marv: Worth dyin' for.
      • [shoots priest]
      • Marv: Worth killin' for.
      • [shoots him again]
      • Marv: Worth goin' to hell for.
      • [shoots him again]
      • Marv: Amen.
    • Crazy credits
      In the opening credits, each of the actor's names is shown with a frame from the comic, featuring their character.
    • Alternate versions
      December 2005 DVD reissue included an extended, reedited version of the film. The four story lines were separated into individual short films, with about seven minutes of additional footage added, marketed as approximately 25, but about thirteen of those minutes are credits added to each story and five come from marketing exaggeration.
