Burying the lede here...

Coasting off of the success of Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure four years prior as well as MTV's The Idiot Box, Alex Winter (Bill S. Preston, Esq.) wrote and starred in Freaked! Keanu Reeves (Theodore Logan) has a more minor uncredited role as Ortiz "the dog boy."

Also features Bobcat Goldthwait and Gibby Haines of the Butthole Surfers.

If you can, find the European cut.

What's better with the European cut?

[–] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 days ago

Nothing too special just a little longer with some stuff cut from the US version.

The European Cut contains two scenes not in the US Theatrical Cut:

The Freekz playing Wheel Of Fortune without Ricky the morning after his first show.

Ricky says his goodbyes to all the Freekz one by one before he is intended to kill them all.
