• Follow the Leader: Made quickly to cash in on the "futuristic blood sport" genre created by Rollerball. Ironically, it seems to be better respected by some critics than the earlier film because of its dark sense of humor.
• Playing Against Type: It was early in his career, so his type wasn't established yet, but still, the film features Sylvester Stallone playing a mouthy Jerkass villain.
  • David Carradine purposefully chose to play Frankenstein so that he didn't get typecast from Kung Fu.
• What Could Have Been: Peter Fonda was offered the part of Frankenstein.
