Quicksand

The catfight seemed like the women were coached to make it look fake. And what about the chick being tossed into the quicksand? She's unconscious, then suddenly wakes up as soon as the tree guy throws her in. And she's at the edge, where she can clearly grab onto firm ground to keep from sinking, but you see her left arm swoosh into the swamp to assist her in getting out to the middle. Couldn't they have done another take to make it look less contrived?

Dude... when the Tobanga comes, people do dumb sh!t.

We gotta get jobs. Then we get the khakis. Then we get the chicks.

You said:

Like, say, not running away.

You can't just run away from Tobanga, bro.

That's right because Tobanga is relentless! It'll never stop stalking you.

And speaking of stalks, I suddenly am hungry for a talk of celery ... which sorta resembles Tobanga.

You mean if the actresses had not been coached to make it look faked, they would have actually tried to kill each other?
