I did see it most recently in Deep Rising (seemed like all of the characters had one) while channel surfing. It wasn't similar in design to a minigun, more along the lines of a short carbine. I couldn't be certain, but I believe it was supposedly a clip-fed weapon. I really doubted the reality of such a weapon, although the design could theoretically work IF it was a gas-operated system (and I'd hate to think how complex that would have to be for such a compact firearm).
Rocky, I think you're talking about a different gun, probably the one that they used in Predator (or very similar). Dad's got a few slides from 'Nam, and it's very evident that no person on earth could handle something of that size. I can certainly imagine that something with that rate of fire would pretty much ruin the day of anything it had to. Definitely rather be the one shooting it that being on the receiving end.
