Did You Know?
| Trivia | According to Beverly Gray's book, "Roger Corman: An Unauthorized Life", the Hell's Angels insignia worn by the characters in the film was an exact replica of the trademarked one used by the real Angels. As a result, Roger Corman (whose company released the movie in the U.S.) was forced to pay the group unspecified damages for copyright infringement and tarnishing the Angels' "stellar reputation".

| Goofs | While most of the uniforms in this film are very mix-match and inaccurate, one of the most glaring mistakes is the American Colonel wearing a camouflage pattern not developed until the 1980s. See more » |
