Emmet Walsh. Co-starring Theresa Russell, Gary Busey, Kathy Bates and Harry Dean Stanton. Screenplay by Jeffrey Boam, Alvin Sargent and Edward Bunker, from Bunker's novel No Beast So Fierce. Directed by Ulu Grosbard. Rated (R). Michael Mann also contributed to the screenplay but was uncredited upon the film's release. The novel No Beast So Fierce later served as a source of reference for the character Neil McCauley in Mann's 1995 film Heat.
