Trivia

Things worth knowing

• 1Tight 71-minute runtime — shorter than most television pilots.

• 3Part of the "Where the Boys Aren't Collection" — so the characters or world continue elsewhere.
• 4Lean credit list — fewer than 30 people officially credited.
• 5Directed by Fred J. Lincoln, shot by Ralph Parfait. Note their partnership — DPs and directors often return to each other across a career.
• 6Editor Rick Deckard shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.
• 7Leslie Glass and Kobe Tai and Tia Bella carry the top of the cast.
• 8IMDB entry: tt0238724 — still the authoritative cross-reference for credits and trivia.
• 9Only 1 TMDB ratings — you're getting ahead of the curve on this one.
