    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      All the bad guys in the film were played by stuntmen.
    • Quotes
      • Assistant D.A. Jonas: Crowder? That bum? That ex-cop?
      • District Att'y Virgil Riley: Jonas, just because his methods are unorthodox, that didn't make him a bad cop.
      • Assistant D.A. Jonas: Wherever he goes there's always trouble and a few dead bodies left behind. Shoot first and and ask questions later. He's like a page out of the Old West.
      • District Att'y Virgil Riley: You're right. But you've just described the one man who can get Finley here alive - Jesse Crowder.
    • Alternate versions
      The DVD and Blu-ray by Code Red is the 78-minute director's cut and includes differences from the theatrical/home video versions. The film opens with a car exploding, a witness shot to death by an off-screen gunman, the bullet hits bloodier, as well as a shot of a stabbed crook falling out of an airport restroom stall.
