The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai: Across the Eighth Dimension! was an underground hit in 1984, later gathering a cultish following.
Half American and Half Japanese, Buckaroo Banzai (Peter Weller) leads the field in research into unusual and ignored sciences. He is a brain surgeon, physicist, crime fighter and rock musician. Not content to stop there his team of friends (from all walks of life) also wander the country in their tour bus as the rock 'n' roll band The Hong Kong Cavaliers.
Buckaroo Banzai has developed an Oscillation Overthruster by which he travels briefly through solid matter and into the eighth dimension. This prompts the evil Dr. Lizardo (Lithgow) to attempt to steal the Overthruster so that he might bring back an evil race of aliens trapped in the 8th dimension to conquer earth. Banzai and his rock band set out to save the planet.

could u rep please?
thanks a lot
The filming location for the jet car sequence at the beginning of The Adventures of Buckaroo banzai is listed as 2 different places in the CA desert. In the movie are vehicles clearly marked as Bullhead City AZ fire department vehicles. No fire dept would send their equipment so far out of area for anything less than a disaster.
What are the actual filming location for the jet car scenes?
Thanks
All of the links are dead.
