    • Trivia
      The opening scene shows The Vandals performing the song "Urban Struggle" where part of the lyrics say "After a couple shit kickin' Cowboy movies I'll check out the Cowboy scene down at Zubie's". Zubie's was an urban-cowboy bar located at 1712 Placentia Avenue in Costa Mesa, California. The Vandals frequently performed at the Cuckoo's Nest next door at 1714 and there were numerous clashes between the punkers and cowboys in the 1970's and early 1980's.

      The cops in Arizona have Chicago flags on their uniforms.
    • Quotes

      Grant: Look, Milo, we're talking about real life here, okay? Real life is not California. Real life is a shit sandwich and every day you gotta take another bite.

    • Crazy credits
      When the title comes on screen, the word "DUDES" is shown with metal studs. Two guns appear below the title, one of which fires.

    Nostalgic review

    I love this film. Mostly for nostalgic reasons and seeing this in 1987 but with Cryer, Roebuck and a great badguy in Lee Ving. Not Spheeris best and plays like a Decline film entry. I had a good time revisiting it.
