Wissenswertes
Jamie Lee Curtis played Buckaroo's mother in a flashback, but this scene was deleted. The scene is available on the recent DVD release as an optional prequel to the theatrical version, and as a special feature. Jamie Lee Curtis is visible in a photo on the dashboard of the jet car in the wide-screen version.

Patzer
During the closing credit sequence with Buackaroo Banzai and the gang walking in the aqueduct, Perfect Tommy is first seen wearing a white jacket and black pants. As they take their final turn in front of the "Buckaroo Banzai" graffiti on the wall, Perfect Tommy is wearing a completely different outfit - gray jacket and red pants.

Zitate
Mission Control: Buckaroo, The White House wants to know is everything ok with the alien space craft from Planet 10 or should we just go ahead and destroy Russia?
Buckaroo Banzai: Tell him yes on one and no on two.
Mission Control: Which one was yes, go ahead and destroy Russia... or number 2?

Crazy Credits
The credits end with the announcement of the upcoming sequel "Buckaroo Banzai Versus The World Crime League". As of 2023, that film has yet to be made, pending approval from the film's current rights holders, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Lion Corp.

Alternative Versionen
UK theatrical version was cut a little bit due to the distributor wanting a PG rating. It has since been released uncensored on video with a 15 rating (later re-rated to 12 in 2003).

Absolutely Mad

A totally ridiculous 80's Sci-fi movie. The first scene has our hero drive through a solid mountain, and from there it gets bonkers. Great fun, makes Mars Attack look sensible. As for the cast, it's a who's who of 80's / 90's TV and film actors.The effects are terrible but the movie is great fun. A must watch.
