Dead End Drive-In

The drive-in location seen in this film had closed down when the movie was filmed in 1985. The drive-in has now been demolished and no longer exists.

The road from the point of view of the car as it is travelling after Crab's escape from the Star Drive In is shown during almost all the end credits.

The original Australian theatrical version's runtime is 92 minutes. For international release, New World Pictures removed approximately five minutes of scenes for a new runtime of 87 minutes. The removed scenes are as follows: First is an extended scene of Thompson and Crabs talking about daily activities like cricket and mini-golf. Second is a scene of a discussion about sex performed upside down. Third is a scene of the guys taking Crabs, tying him to a merry-go-round and spinning him while spraying beer on him against his will, plus a scene with Carmen talking to the girls about Crabs. Fourth shows Crabs going through the Asian section of the drive-in. Finally there is an extended scene at the group meeting with the whites, wanting to stir up racial tension between the Asian groups.
