Goofs
When Valerie, Candy, and the aliens stop at the club, there is bag of fast-food on the dashboard that wasn't there before. (A deleted scene explains it. In it, Mac extends his arm by feet to pick up the bag; Val asks if he can do that with any part of his body.)

Quotes
Zeebo: [imitating Candy] Oh, my God. You're like totally black!

Alternate versions
On all DVD versions, the Vestron Pictures title, logo and credit have been removed, with the film starting with the "A Kestrel Films Production" screen, and the included trailer has a green band (with the start of the music) instead of a Vestron logo. The Vestron Blu-ray restores the opening logo and credit to the film, as well as the logo on the trailer.

Highly recommended ...

I didn't think much of this film when I first saw it but since then I have watched it a number of times and, in the words of Beetlejuice, "it keeps getting funnier every single time!" I work at a busy video store and I'll often put this film on when I'm working Saturday night. It's always popular with customers who enjoy watching it as they browse, comment on how young Jim Carrey looks, and ask "What on earth is this?" as they get to the checkout counter. That's because its such a great looking film. The vibrant color palette with its bright primaries and 80s rehash of 1950s aesthetics is inspired production design. The film really has aged incredibly well and looks better today than when it was first released. Were it released today it could easily take its place beside any of the recent musical comedies that have come out in the last ten years.
