In addition to playing Big Foot, Papp Johnson also plays himself as a stand up comedian. The original actress cast in the part of Dexter was hired to go on tour with Janelle Monet and had to be replaced at the last minute by the gorgeous and talented Dominique Nicole. The actor who plays Rainbow Party Boy was discovered while working at a Beverly Hills cosmetic surgery clinic as a receptionist. Jim Wynorski originally refused to play himself, resulting in Troy Fromin (OX from Saved by the Bell) being cast in the role. Wynorski ultimately relented "for the good of the picture" and as a gift to B Movie History.
