Texas Lightning is a 1981 film written and directed by Gary Graver. The film stars Maureen McCormick, who is most well known for her role as Marcia Brady in the hit television series The Brady Bunch. The film was originally intended as a serious drama that was to be called The Boys, but the producers demanded that Graver re-edit it into a comedy.[1]
