Oh... oh no.
*UPDATE*
I just remembered another movie shot on Guam, 1971's Noon Sunday. Bankrolled by Gordon Mailloux, the movie stars Mark Lenard, better known for his role as Spock's jungle-fever havin' pops Sarek, as a secret agent sent into a tropical communist stronghold for some reason having to do with the Cold War getting red hot and then Linda Avery gets naked.
Noon Sunday is one of those classics of inspired film incompetence that's so bad, it's good, but then rolls right back over to bad again before pulling out all the stops and ponying up the goods. This movie will fuck your shit. Unfortunately as far as I know there's only one copy in existence, belonging to Mr. Mailloux's daughter Anne Gorby. Ask her to show it to you sometime, she'll point out the scene where Gordon Mailloux pops in as Mark Lenard's stunt double in one particularly harrowing scene.

What's GVB thinking? Are they trying to advertise Guam as a tropical paradise where B list celebrities make crappy movies? Has David Carradine already blown all the money he made from "Kill Bill"? And where the hell is Fat Joe? Perhaps smart enough to pull out of this fiasco before it was too late? And what the hell kind of blurb is that on the poster? "Shot on location on Guam, in Tokyo and Los Angeles"? Doesn't quite have the ring of "In space, no one can hear you scream" or "It's about/face"(!)(remember THAT one, Jason? 1998 flashback, aw yeah!).I'm not even gonna get into the whole "on/in Guam" controversy. Was that blurb a condition of being allowed to shoot on-aw,hell, excuse me-IN Guam? I could just go on...
