Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAn early project of cinematographer Janusz Kaminski, who went onto work numerous times with Steven Spielberg.
- GoofsWhen Johnny first picks up Kat from her house, where she has lived all of her life, she very briefly tries to push the front gate instead of pulling it.
- Crazy creditsNear the end of the end credits is the text "b kool stay n skool". Ironically, every one of those words, except for "stay", is intentionally misspelled. Once the scrolling credits end, there's an extremely quick shot of Vanilla Ice fixing his hat while on the bike (obviously being pulled on a trailer) and giving the "peace" sign.

Featured review
OK, I admit it, I once was a huge Vanilla Ice fan. But then again, so were millions of other people. And incidentally, I just loved this movie. OK, so I was 11 years-old when I first watched it, so of course, my tastes in movies hadn't started developing back then. But even with a mediocre performance on the part of the Iceman and poor screen writing, I still find this movie enjoyable. Why? I don't know. Perhaps because it brings back fond memories. And I wouldn't quite put it on the same level of awfulness as Manos because no matter how bad this movie is, there is still something watchable in it. The problem is I still haven't figured out what it is.
