Producer Robert H. Solo hired real gang members as guardians as well as actors. Two of them were shot during filming.
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.
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 gang gunfire.
Sean Penn was arrested and spent close to a month in jail after hitting an extra on the set of this film who was taking snapshots of Penn without his permission.
When I saw this in middle school I had no idea what crips or bloods were....but after it came out there were sooo many wanna be gangsters running around school....I feel this movie inspired some idiots to be idiot wanna be gangsters in the suburbs....
