* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The [=DVD=] is out of print and expensive. It's not likely to be reissued due to Creator/IslandRecords owning the 35mm materials for the movie, meaning that [[Creator/PsychopathicRecords Psychopathic]] wouldn't be able to transfer the movie to high definition without their help, and Island doesn't want to do anything with the movie due to them losing money on the home video release. Additionally, ICP and Twiztid no longer being on speaking terms can't have helped matters, either.

* ScrewedByTheLawyers: To this day, the only version available of the movie available on [=DVD=] and streaming services is a very obvious, low-quality [=VHS=] transfer. This is due to ICP and Psychopathic Records not owning the rights to it, which prevents them from legally reissuing the movie. Currently, the rights belong to Island Records who most likely have no interest in spending the money on releasing an HD remaster.

* IAmNotSpock: Moore and Foley were cast specifically to reprise their well-known fictional personas.
* MoneyDearBoy: Wrestling/MickFoley mentioned in one of his books that he appeared in the movie partially as a favor to ICP, but mostly so he could get a SAG card and access to their excellent health insurance.
* NoBudget: At all. Halfway through the filming Violent J actually had to pay a hundred grand out of his own pocket to keep the production going.
