Action Point

The film is loosely inspired on the now defunct Action Park in Vernon, New Jersey that first opened in 1979. The park was considered by many to be one of the most dangerous theme parks in the United States. At least six people were known to have died as a result of incidents that occurred within the original park. The park closed in 1996 and later reopened, under new ownership, as Mountain Creek. After yet another ownership change, the park briefly changed its name back to Action Park for the 2014 and 2015 seasons before reverting back to Mountain Creek in 2016, in order to disassociate itself from the former park's infamous reputation. The real park is the subject of the documentary Class Action Park (2020).

The movie is set around the 70's or the 80's. But when the group visits 7parks, you can see a Vekoma SLC (Suspended Looping Coaster). The first one was built in 1994 in Walibi Flevo in The Netherlands.

On-set pranks, various nut-shots, and bloopers are shown during the first portion of the closing credits.
