Kevin Costner has said that he has never forgotten this film and the powerful influence it has had on him. Costner would later star during the 1990s in such post-apocalyptic movies as Waterworld (1995) and The Postman (1997).
The film was originally shot as a made-for-TV movie. Paramount executives were so impressed with it that they released it in theaters as a feature. The cast sued the producers for higher pay, claiming they were paid television salaries and not feature film salaries. The case was settled out of court.
The letterman's jacket that Kevin Costner wears in the movie is the one he earned by playing baseball at Villa Park High School.
Film debut of Lukas Haas.
Flashback sequences were shot with a hand-held Super 8mm camera, to give the effect of a "home movie".

"Brad Wetherly: [after finding Hiroshi abandoned at home] I'd better take you home with me, Hiroshi... because I don't think your dad is coming back."
