Saw this one in a theater and definitely felt exhausted by Hayes' ordeal. Really loved Giorgio Moroder's music, but my feelings about it definitely changed AFTER seeing the film and I couldn't come to terms with people dancing to it in discos. Hard to believe that it's been a whole decade since lead actor Brad Davis died of AIDS. Paul Smith (a strongman from Venice, California) played the sadistic guard and it was RANDY Quaid playing one of Hayes' fellow inmates. When Jim Carrey parodied the girlfriend's prison visit scene in "The Cable Guy", I got physically sick ("Oh, Billy!").
