details
- According to director Penelope Spheeris this film was financed by two businessmen who originally wanted to finance a porn film.
- After the film was screened in Los Angeles, punk music fans got into so many fights and caused so much trouble that then-L.A. Police Chief Daryl Gates wrote the filmmakers a letter asking them not to screen the film again.
