In this Episode Adam and Mark take on a lostener recommendation. Rik the Caffiend Slinger brought to their attention the kind of movie you just don't see anymore.

FACTOIDS

  • In a retrospective assessment of the film, Stamos has stated: "It's the perfect midnight-movie, where people can come and dress up. It's — what's the term I'm looking for? — the best worst thing you will ever see"

  • The movie was intended as the starting point for a "Son of Bond"-type franchise. It not only flopped at the box-office, but was shunned by its own co-star, Gene Simmons. Years later, when a fan recognized him as "Velvet Von Ragnar", Simmons exclaimed "Don't tell me you SAW that thing!"

  • Velvet Von Ragner's band in the club scene was made up of actual trans performers who gave Gene Simmons pointers on how to play Ragner.

  • The costume Gene Simmons wears for his nightclub act, is actually the same costume that Lynda Carter wore for her 1980 television special ENCORE!, in which she tried to look like a member of the band KISS while singing "I Was Made for Loving You".

  • The intersex angle was a later addition to the script.

  • Whenever a fan compliments Gene Simmons on this movie, he's been known to respond, "You are too kind. I sucked in that movie."

  • John Stamos took gymnastic lessons for his role as Lance Stargrove.

  • Shot in 35 days.

  • Some of the lyrics from Simmons' nightclub act scene would later show up in "Spit," a song from the 1992 Kiss album "Revenge."

  • Gene Simmons had to shave and wax his chest for his role as Velvet Von Ragner.

  • This movie was stuck in obscurity for at least 20 years and VHS copies were very hard to find. In 2017, Shout! Factory bought the rights to it and gave it new life, releasing it on Blu-ray and Prime Video.
