    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Steve Borden's character was openly opposing Jesus and religion. In real life Borden is a devout Born-Again Christian.
    • Goofs
      When the characters first approach the roadside diner the glass front doors are emblazoned with the ironic name of the establishment: "Last Chance Diner." However, when the camera perspective changes to show the characters entering the diner, the front door simply states "Diner."
    • Quotes
      • Jesus: Scratch any sin and just below the surface you'll find pride.
      • Jesus: People steal because they think they deserve what other people have worked hard for.
      • Jesus: They hop from bed to bed because they feel entitled to just satisfy themselves no matter who it hurts, no matter what pain that it causes.
