My first impression, erie as it was, is the Jim Jones cult movie. "Jim Jones Massacre " maybe ?
Boothe did a great job as Jim Jones in that movie - but try to catch 'Southern Comfort' sometime - another good movie with Powers Boothe.

Yea - kind of a off - color movie with an odd plot but interesting - sort of 'Deliverance' on steroids!

Hmm, Deliverance, enjoyed it, but, dunno, might still check it out as Deliverance was a powerful movie. On steroids though...might have to be careful, no not really. I'm not a faint heart!

Slugnut, I load for all of those also, with exception of the 45-70.
As I have enough gumberment in my life. :lol:

Ran a batch of 41's through the tumbler yesterday. :D
Still raining here today, so I will probably be back at the press a little later on.
Got to meet a man about a check here shortly, first. :roll:
