DVD release[edit]

The DVD version of this cult-classic is difficult to find. Image Entertainment no longer owns the distribution rights and, therefore; is not planning on releasing it again in the near future. Universal Studios currently owns the DVD distribution rights.

It's being released on 8/22/06 by Universal

Playing time[edit]

Ok, 87 minutes is a normal time for a feature movie. But i am pretty sure that i have seen a 3 hours (!) version of this movie. And it was filled with even more mind boggling stupidity. ;) Does someone have a reference on the long version? --14:07, 8 May 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.55.227.207 (talk)

The only "mind boggling stupidity" I know of would be the claim that there is a 3-hour version of this film.HammerFilmFan (talk) 12:29, 6 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Interocitor in culture[edit]

An interocitor appears in the video of Al Yankovic's Devo parody, "Dare to be Stupid." 174.19.132.168 (talk) 19:54, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
