WHO THE HECK IS ON THE VIDEO COVER...

I'm talking about the older cover with the man holding the shotgun. Who is that? I know its supposed to be Whiley Pritcher, but it looks NOTHING LIKE HIM. Alright, maybe at a quick glance the large stature and short hair could fool someone, but look at it for more than a second and it's obviously not.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not outraged, in fact I hardly care. I just think its funny. I believe there's a boys in prison movie called "Street Thugs" or something where there are four or five people on the cover who arent in the movie.

What is misleading, however, is the fact that this double is carrying a shotgun when there are no shotguns in the movie. In fact, there's one scene with a handgun that is never fired.

haha i had the same question. it makes no sense. there is a picture of a guy not in the movie, holding a shotgun which never appears in the movie. beats me.

I personally thought that the main character Rob Marquette was exceptionally good. His death was unfortunate. Does Anybody know how he died?

According to imbd, suicide.

Also, from a reviewer on Amazon: It is also rumoured that the lead, Ron Marquette suffered an emotional disorder that caused him an extreme amount of discomfort in viewing himself on the screen. He subsequently committed suicide after seeing himself in this film. (Boy did HE pick the wrong profession)

The girl on the cover of 'Exotica' is not in the movie either.

It IS very annoying.

At first I thought it was Hilary Swank from Million Dollar Baby

Look at the cover on Public Access' IMDB page

Looks so much like Matthew Gray Gubler, it's uncanny!
