Did anyone notice the prescription pad doctor?


The doctor's name on the prescription pad that the boys' used to get the sleeping pills was Dr. Ray Colton. This character was in the movie "Christie's Revenge" directed by the same director that directed "Dead at 17" - Douglas Jackson. Dani Kind who plays Danni in this movie had the lead in Christie's Revenge. I was just wondering if anyone else noticed this bit of information.

Wow. I'm impressed. We sometimes put those little things in there as little homages to other films we've done and rarely do any of the viewers pick up on them. You are absolutely correct.

I just noticed that they misspell "verification" as "varification"! That should have tipped off somebody! Or, perhaps the person filling the perscription would have thought the doctor needs a new printer.

You beat me to it. I missed the movie the first time it ran, but I recognized the name on the pad immediately.

The other thing I noticed in the first 60 seconds was that it was definitely a Jackson film as soon as I saw all his "regulars" in the opening scenes!!
