The Dogs In Space House
Does anybody have the address of the Dogs In Space house in Richmond? It was apparently quite well known, and should probably be included in the article. I had it, but seem to have misplaced it.

 * I actually have a photo of it from 1993. Part of the Melbourne Post-Punk Tour or something. Here's a 1999 pic. Here's another pic. I don't remember the precise address, but it's right on a T-junction with the crossbar of the T being east-west and the um other bit of the T pointing north. (That's Melbourne grid east/west/north, not true east/west/north.) - David Gerard 19:41, 13 May 2005 (UTC)

Correction on fastest time to Ballarat for the only 24 hour McDonalds in late 70's - early eighties, was 45 minutes by Andrew Brooke, Peter Milne, Simon Bonney and Bruno Adams. Andrew was driving his 253 V8 Holden Kingswood!

How can Chain Saw baby be 26 when the movie was filmed '86, doesn't that make him 20/21


 * I removed all this from the article. The fastest time to Ballarat has no relevance to this page. The present age of Chainsaw baby (Lowenstein's daughter, not a boy) is also not relevant. BrianFG 02:06, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

Timeframe of this film
I seem to recall a screen caption at the beginning of this movie stating that it was set in 1978, but certain events indicate that it might be set in 1979. If it is 79, then the comment I made about Skylab can be taken out.BrianFG 02:22, 10 May 2007 (UTC)

The following is unsourced information:

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (formerly Ta bu shi da yu) talk 10:15, 6 October 2008 (UTC) --khrystene (talk) 21:53, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * The "Pelaco" sign in the background of the external night shots was already in a dilapidated state in 1986. The production had to have it re-wired to actually light up.
 * Tim's keyboard device was called the 'Bovanscope' and was a highly-mutated Tandy 50-in-1 electronics kit.
 * Noah Taylor can be seen in the film at a party in one of his first screen appearances.
 * Noah Taylor is also in the first scenes outside Festival Hall where they're queuing for tickets to David Bowie. He's one of the kids who shouts BOWIE when the reporter asks them who they're waiting for. He's awfully young. :)
 * Other trivia: Sam Sejavka, who the character "Sam" played by Michael, is based on, shows up in the party scene (where they're sitting on the bed together and the girls are tormenting Pierre - played by Hugo Race - trying to get him to say clitoris) and Michael (as Sam) says "Hi Michael" to him.
