Every time one of the characters uses the skull lighter, the flame is a different color; Blue when Jordan White lights it, White when Xavier Red lights it and Reddish Orange when Amy Blue lights it.
Jordan Ladd was originally cast as Amy Blue, but her mother, Cheryl Ladd, vetoed her playing the role at the last minute because of the sex and nudity (Jordan later ended up performing a nude sex scene in Club Dread in 2004). This explains the special "no thanks" closing credits for Cheryl Ladd and "others who had no faith" and a "special thanks" credit for Jordan Ladd. Araki and Cheryl later became friends, and Jordan Ladd does appear in his follow-up film Nowhere (1997).
The film was shot mostly at night in Los Angeles in January 1994. The crew avoided well known landmarks and shot in undeveloped areas of urban sprawl (common in LA) to give the apocalyptic feel. The first day's photography was ruined in a lab accident and on the second day, the Northridge earthquake struck.
Rose McGowan essentially got the part when she ran into Gregg Araki outside a Los Angeles gym.
The gang of goons in the beginning of the movie is played by the Vancouver based industrial group, Skinny Puppy. Cevin Key, who falls off the car, fractured his knee during the shooting of this scene.
"Amy Blue: Eat my fuck."
"Jordan White: "I love you" can mean a lot of things... like "you'll do 'till someone better comes along," or "I can't describe how I really feel but I know that I'm supposed to say this," or "Shut up, I'm watching TV.""
