There are a lot of interesting facts about the movie I bet you didn't know and weird little tid-bits you didn't put together before--well, here you can read them all! And if you think of anything I didn't, please e-mail me! Enjoy!
•Lothos's fellow vamp and right hand man, Amilyn is played by the actor Paul Ruebens who is most well known for his work as Pee-Wee Herman on Ree-Wee's playhouse. (And although I am quite ashamed of it, when I was little I used to sit in front of the tube and watch it every saturday=). Also another little fact about Paul is that a while before making the movie there was a lot of
controversy surrounding him which made them cancel his show, Pee-Wee's Playhouse. What was the controversy? Well, he was arrested for public indecency in a movie theater. It was so long ago I dont remember the exact details but he was in a porn theater and he was caught whipping his Mr. Winkie out and masturbating, several other men were arrested for the same thing that day. And to think...he was doing a childs tv show program at the time too.
•Benny, Pike's friend who gets turned into a vampire a while into the movie, is played by David Arquette who later went on to play Dewey Riley in SCREAM and SCREAM 2.
•When Pike and Benny go to the bar-ish type hang out, their waitress is played by Ricki Lake the infamous talk show host. This was of course before she got her start in her own show.
•The guy who plays the basketball teams strange coach is the
former host of the dating game show Studs.
•Sasha Jenson (its a guy) plays a basketball player in the Buffy movie, but he was
also in a Michael Myers movie too=) Yep, he was in Halloween 4.
•This movie was one of Ben Affleck's first movie roles. Although he doesn't have a big part in the movie-he is in it none the less on the High School Baseketball team as player number 10. Bet ya didn't know that one=)
•At the time of making the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie, Luke Perry was also starring in the popular television series, Beverly Hills 90210. A couple years later he left the show. In recent 90210 history, Hillary Swank who stars with Perry in the movie as Buffy's stuck up friend Kimberly, also became a reoccuring member of the 90210ers. But a while after she started, she also left the popular show. Coiencidence? I think not!=) hehehe
•In the show and the movie, the school's mascot is the same, a piggie!
