    • Trivia
      Stanley A. Long has said that US $150,000 cash to finance the footage shot in New York City was nearly lost for good when his brother forgot a briefcase with the banknotes in it at the city's heliport. The key creatives of the film raced back in a taxi to find that the stash was still luckily there untouched.
    • Goofs
      Actor Kevin Smith is falsely credited as the video store clerk, who was around sixty years old with gray hair, whilst Smith was young, muscular, and in his early twenties at this time.
    • Quotes
      • Ed: [after they've finished watching the second movie] Pretty good, huh? Not that I get scared or nothin', 'cause I know they're just actors. With stories.
