    • Trivia
      The opening scene shows The Vandals performing the song "Urban Struggle" where part of the lyrics say "After a couple shit kickin' Cowboy movies I'll check out the Cowboy scene down at Zubie's". Zubie's was an urban-cowboy bar located at 1712 Placentia Avenue in Costa Mesa, California. The Vandals frequently performed at the Cuckoo's Nest next door at 1714 and there were numerous clashes between the punkers and cowboys in the 1970's and early 1980's.

      The cops in Arizona have Chicago flags on their uniforms.
    • Quotes

      Grant: Look, Milo, we're talking about real life here, okay? Real life is not California. Real life is a shit sandwich and every day you gotta take another bite.

    • Crazy credits
      When the title comes on screen, the word "DUDES" is shown with metal studs. Two guns appear below the title, one of which fires.

    Pointless.
    Three punkers begin a road trip from New York to California looking for "paradise", but encounter romance, violence and death on their way instead. Problem is that the characters are mainly unengaging, so it's hard to care about the outcome of their adventures. A pointless, frequently obnoxious film, with very little to recommend it. (*1/2)
