- TriviaMany of the cast members reportedly consumed actual drugs in many of the scenes. One cast member, hungry for a fix, actually left the set during filming to rob a nearby pharmacy while wearing a Gene Simmon's, Kiss mask.
- Crazy credits"To June Bryant, without whom this film could not have been made"
- Alternate versionsThe original version of the film ran 87 minutes and began with a music play-in of about five minutes over a black screen before the title card appeared, and ended with a music play-out over a black screen. There were no other credits. The version released on DVD removes the music play-in and has film credits at the end. This runs 77 minutes with PAL speed-up, which would correspond to 80 minutes at cinema speed.

Featured review
Seedy Seventies Melbourne
This film covers one night for a group of people living, and trying to score drugs, in Melbourne in the late seventies. Sad and funny.
