Bio-Dome is a 1996 movie starring Pauly Shore and Stephen Baldwin and directed by Jason Bloom. The story centers on two men named Bud (Shore) and Doyle (Baldwin) and their experience inside a "bio-dome", a form of a closed ecological system. Shore won a Golden Raspberry Award as worst actor for his performance in the 1996 Golden Raspberry Awards.

  • Bio-Dome is mentioned in the "Weird Al" Yankovic song "Albuquerque", when Al's list of complaints about his plane trip includes "And the in-flight movie was Bio-Dome with Pauly Shore" (shortly before the plane explodes). [1]
  • Pop superstar Kylie Minogue has said that appearing in Bio-Dome was the worst decision of her professional career.
  • This film is based upon the Biosphere 2, a scientific project that began operation in 1991 in the Arizona desert.
  • The first song of the 1995 album Firme by the ska/punk band Voodoo Glow Skulls is playing in the background when the main characters in the film are driving through the desert. This album, in its turn, opens with a sequence taken from the cult movie Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke.
  • In a Family Guy episode "Screwed the Pooch", Brian the Dog admitted in court that he had rented out Bio-Dome and Son in Law, both films starring Shore; at this point, various people in the courtroom collectively gasp, one muttering: "He's terrible."
  • In "The Cryonic Woman" episode of Futurama, Pauly Shore is cryogenically frozen (in a cryo-tank next to Weird Al Yankovic), and on awakening, remarks, about Bio-Dome, and in reply to Fry's statement "You sure caused trouble in that bubble": "If it rhymes, I can cause trouble in it."
  • Jack Black and Kyle Gass have a brief appearance in the film while playing in their band Tenacious D.
