Spota vs Spota
One of the bad guys is named George Spota. In "Outland", Sean Connery's earlier movie, one of the bad guys is Nicholas Spota.
shareSame director, too. Peter Hyams.
Maybe Hyams knew some jerk named Spota earlier in life, and using his name for a bad guy in his movies was a way to get back at the dude.
Nope, I was wrong. Spota is his wife's maiden name.
