Trivia:
When the students take their final exam near the end of the film, the song "Mind Over Matter" plays and is performed by E.G. Daily. The song was originally recorded by Debbie Harry (of Blondie), but due to legal conflicts E.G. Daily replaced her on the final soundtrack. However, Blondie's "Rapture" plays in the background during the strip club scene.

Goofs:
Continuity: At the end of the film, Chainsaw's dad says to the Principal that they stopped having kids after they had him. But we saw in the fantasy scene earlier where Chainsaw "didn't know anything," he had a little sister.

This is an excellent addition to the canon of Dean Cameron works. This proves why he is now the hottest upcoming young star of the '80's. Rumor has is that he got the role through his friendship with Bruce Willis. Joel Siegel wrote in his last book that this movie is his closet favorite. It's mine too. And it should be yours. 10/10, Five Stars. Look for KIrsty Alley in her pre-Veronica's closet days.
