Trivia: According to Roddy Piper, he came up with (arguably) the film's most famous line. While driving one day, he scribbled various versions of the line on a pad, based on interviews he had done as a wrestler and gave them to John Carpenter. The line selected was from when Piper faced Playboy Buddy Rose, and said, "I'm here to chew bubble gum and kick ass." "And I'm all out of bubble gum" was added on. (Source: ScreenRant).

Trivia: The homeless "camp" seen in the movie is real. To save money, and for realism, director John Carpenter shot the scenes at an actual homeless encampment. The people living there were paid as extras. (Source: ScreenRant).
