Blood, Guts, Bullets, and Octane is a 1998 independent action comedy film (with elements of dark humor) written and directed by Joe Carnahan. The film stars Joe Carnahan and Dan Leis as two salesman of a failing used car dealership who are paid $250,000 to allow a 1963 Pontiac LeMans convertible onto the dealership lot for two days.
