When Harry meets Uhuru leader, Mustapha (Albert Popwell), he asks "Where do I know you from?" Popwell played a bank robber in Dirty Harry (1971), a pimp in Magnum Force (1973), and Horace in Sudden Impact (1983). He didn't appear in The Dead Pool (1988).
When Harry, (Clint Eastwood) is about to intervene in the convenience store siege, his partner Inspector Frank DiGeorgio (John Mitchum) asks if he needs help, but Harry responds that he "may need to move fast and doesn't need too much linguini slowing him down". This is a reference to Dirty Harry (1971) when DiGeorgio could not climb over the fence with Harry to get into the football stadium, due to his weight, with the excuse "Too much linguini".
According to Clint Eastwood biographer Marc Eliot, screenwriter Stirling Silliphant suggested Tyne Daly for her role, but she turned down the script three times before finally deciding on doing it. Daly also suggested that the romantic attachment between her character and Callahan be omitted. Eastwood agreed.
As with other "Dirty Harry" films, Callahan makes use of a repeated catchphrase. In Dirty Harry (1971), there was the "Do you feel lucky?" speech, in Magnum Force (1973), there was "A man's got to know his limitations", in Sudden Impact (1983) there was "Go ahead. Make my day", and in The Dead Pool (1988), there was "You're sh-it out of luck". In this movie, Callahan repeats the phrase "You can count on that/it" twice, and the word "marvelous" (sarcastically) four times.
According to director James Fargo, the armed robber inside the liquor store improvised when he booted Harry in the ass.
"[Callaghan learns he is being transferred to Personnel] Harry Callahan: Personnel? That's for assholes! Capt McKay: I was in Personnel for ten years. Harry Callahan: Yeah."
"Capt McKay: $14,379. Harry Callahan: How can that be? Capt McKay: You want an itemized account? You took out two front doors, one front window, 12 feet of counter, plus damages to the stock, plus one city vehicle totaled, not to mention three hostages in the hospital, all of whom will probably sue the city. Harry Callahan: For what? Capt McKay: Excessive use of force. For your information, Callahan, the minority community has just about had it with this kind of police work. Harry Callahan: By the "minority community", I suppose you're talking about the hoods."
