This movie is a one-of-a-kind adaptation of an obscure series of short stories about a "rock 'n' roll detective" that, for whatever reason, became a vehicle for aggressively of-his-time comedian Andrew Dice Clay. (Clay's overtly misogynistic, racist, and homophobic comedy is problematic at best by today's standards, but it's adequately summed up by Fairlane costar Gilbert Gottfried's spot-on impression.) Unfortunately, the script had to be altered to include a lot of Dice jokes, including his catchphrase, which is best described as the sound someone from New Jersey might make while being stabbed to death. Billy Idol, who recorded "Cradle of Love" for the soundtrack, was supposed to portray one of the villains; when a motorcycle accident forced him to bow out, he was replaced with Robert Englund, who gamely attempts to speak with an Idol-esque British accent.
