Ringwald was the fresh young face of the 80s, although after her rapid rise to stardom, it took even less time for her to all but disappear.

Estevez and brother Charlie Sheen star as garbage collectors who share a route and are best buddies.
Both are portrayed as aimless layabouts who may never grow up and whose free time consists of surfing, playing practical jokes on another pair of garbage collectors (most of which involve human waste) and, in Sheen's case, spying on a woman who lives in the apartment building across the street.
This eventually leads to Sheen romancing the woman across the street and all three getting involved with killers who are into toxic waste pollution.
