The original script by Richard Di Lello took place in Chicago, and was more about drug dealing than gang members. Dennis Hopper ordered changes, so Michael Schiffer was hired, and the setting was changed to Los Angeles, and the focus of the story became more about the world of gang members.
Sean Penn was arrested on April 2, 1987, and spent thirty-three days in jail for assault after hitting an extra on the set of this film, who was taking snapshots of Penn without his permission.
Producer Robert H. Solo hired real street gang members as guardians as well as actors. Two of them were shot during filming.
Critics complained that the scene showing the funeral being disrupted by gang gunfire was unrealistic. According to the filmmakers, shortly after the scene wrapped, a church service a short distance away actually was disrupted by street gang gunfire.
The film was released April 29, 1988. Actor Trinidad Silva (Frog) died just 3 months later (July 31, 1988) in a vehicle accident caused by a drunk driver. Mr Silva was filming UHF (starring Weird Al Yankovic) at the time of his death.
"Bob Hodges: [to his new partner] There's two bulls standing on top of a mountain. The younger one says to the older one: "Hey pop, let's say we run down there and fuck one of them cows". The older one says: "No son. Lets walk down and fuck 'em all"."
"Danny McGavin: Hey you know, if you just cut me half as much slack as you do the rest of those assholes, I might just owe you one. Bob Hodges: I have, you do."
