00:00 Gene Green, this is car 509. We have the suspect ahead of us. We are pursuing.
00:05 Hey, wait a minute. Hold on there. Stop everything.
00:11 Now, you may be thinking what you're seeing is just another one of them rock 'em, sock 'em, roll 'em, wreck 'em, crash 'em and burn movies.
00:18 Well, you're right.
00:19 But you're also wrong. 'Cause there's a lot more in this movie than meets the eye.
00:29 20th Century Fox presents Thunder and Lightning.
00:32 Starring David Carradine and Kate Jackson.
00:37 How's that for a parlay?
00:39 Let me tell you something, Harley Thomas. You are about the lowest thing that crawls.
00:43 Next to you, Cottonmouth, rattlesnake is walking tall.
00:46 It all takes place in the beautiful Everglades. Home of gators and snakes, possums and coons, and last but not least, moonshine.
00:55 Man, this is the best corn I've ever tasted.
00:57 Now, David Carradine, he plays Harley Thomas. Good old boy with a ring in his ear and a smile on his face.
01:03 He can fight.
01:04 Knock off the kung fu shit.
01:09 He can love.
01:10 And he can drive anything.
01:13 From a mud buggy to a swamp skimmer.
01:17 To a supercharged '57 Chevy.
01:24 Kate Jackson is Nancy Sue. She's stuck on Harley like a fly on honey.
01:28 She's been out roughhousing and carrying on and all.
01:30 She shoots like a man.
01:31 What about me?
01:32 Too bad about you, Jake.
01:34 Drives like the devil.
01:37 And looks like an angel.
01:43 Sorry, Charlie.
01:44 Now, before you start thinking that Thunder and Lightning is just a love story, let me make one thing clear.
01:50 It ain't.
01:51 It's chock full of suspense.
01:54 Money feed.
01:55 Danger.
01:57 Why'd you keep this job?
01:58 I'm too nervous.
01:59 If you say one more mean thing about my car, you can just get out and walk.
02:02 Spine-chilling mystery.
02:04 Harley, why don't you answer me? I know you're in there.
02:06 Breathtaking spectacle.
02:10 Oh, it's even got redeeming social value.
02:18 (tires screeching)
02:20 Well, I'll have to go on for hours telling you why you love Thunder and Lightning.
02:26 Oh, chucks. I got a better idea.
02:31 Why don't you come on out and see it for yourself?
02:33 David Caradine.
02:35 Kate Jackson.
02:37 Thunder and Lightning.
02:39 It's 250 proof fun.
02:42 Man, oh, man, wasn't that sweet?
