Was in Best Buy the other day and I saw this on a new DVD. Very cool deal, definately worth picking up for $15 if you like chase movies.

I was watching the IRL race yesterday and Tomas Scheckter had "Mary Coons" written across his console. If I'm not mistaken, Mary Coons was Dirty Mary's full name? I wonder what the story is behind him having that on his console. Anybody know?

It's been years since I saw Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry. I seem to recall the Mopar (I thought it was a Challenger?) turned into a Camaro just before it exploded. Am I thinking of the right movie?

DMCL is one of the all time best.
Peter Fonda & Susan George acting as best they ever could.
And throw in the late Vic Morrow as the Villian Cop,it rates as one of the all time great Movies with the trademark 70's despair endings.

Thats the movie where everything is going great then BOOM. They smash a train and blow up and then credits. What kind of a way is that to end a movie. I wish they would have at least got caught or something. Anything.
