Trivia:
Craig Smith was part of the original cast and was married and then divorced within the four-year time frame it took to make the film. Because most of the filming took place on weekends, he found himself written out because his new wife - a devout Christian - objected to him working on Sundays. Smith was written back into the film when he got divorced. moreGoofs:
Revealing mistakes: When Derek closes the flap of his skull the second time just before he ties his belt around his head, his hands are upside-down. If he were reaching around to the back of his own head his thumbs would be on the bottom. They are on the top. moreSoundtrack:

Gore: Oh yeah. Acting: Who cares? Action: Sure. Humor: What's funnier than life-sized Sgt. Pepper cut-outs of the Beatles in a car? Nuff said. 10/10
