In Italy, the film was released under the title "Ancora più scemo" and in Germany, the title was "Noch dümmer". Both titles translate as "Even more Dumber". This was done to make the audience believe that the movie was a sequel to Dumb and Dumber (1994).
Austin Pendleton (who was a judge in this film) previously appeared as a stammering defense lawyer in My Cousin Vinny (1992).
Jennifer Coolidge, Alexandra Wentworth, and McNally Sagal all made guest appearances on Seinfeld (1989), in which Michael Richards starred for its entire run.
Charlize Theron and Jeff Daniels also appear in 2 Days in the Valley (1996).
