Trivia:Michael Klesic was originally cast in the role of Henry Evans in 1988. The film was soon later put on hold due to lack of funding. A couple years later Jesse Bradford was cast as Henry Evans because the original child actors had grown to old for their parts. The project was once again put on hold and the same problem happened. Then, was once again re-cast and finally shot and released in 1993. more
Goofs:Revealing mistakes: Obvious stunt double of Henry in the long shot of the fall from the cliff. Culkin seems taller and has a slightly different haircut. more
Quotes:Henry: Oh wait, I just remembered... she's not my mom anymore, she's yours. Isn't that what you said? She's your mother now.
Mark: Yeah...
Henry: Your mom, my mom... what the hell? We'll both miss her.
Mark: I'll kill you first...
Henry: Poor Mark... so violent... so disturbed. If you don't watch out, they're gonna lock you up.
