In the movie he just breaks a guy's nose or something
Did you forget about the part where he causes the deputy to fall out of the helicopter? Or all the other shite he did to the deputies tracking him in the forest?

Other people involved in filming claim he was fired for acting like a tyrant on the set and demanding that the entire movie be re-shaped into a Kirk Douglas vehicle when he didn't realize he was past his prime and Stallone was the star.
That's interesting, considering what kind of movies Douglas was making in the 70s and early 80s.
Just saw "The Fury" the other night, Brian DePalma's second psychic teen movie after Carrie. I guess Douglas was more interested in being the lead than he was in being in quality movies.
