Michael J. Fox repeatedly blew his lines by calling The Judge (John Astin) "Doc", the name of Christopher Lloyd's character in the Back to the Future (1985) trilogy.
It was during filming this on location in New Zealand that Michael J. Fox made up his mind that he'd had enough of being away from his family making movies, and decided to head back to the small screen and star in a new sitcom (Spin City (1996)). This turned out to be his last leading role in a film.
Michael J. Fox performed many of his own stunts in the film. Ironically, he broke his foot by a simple fall while filming in the forest at night. Sir Peter Jackson said Fox's injury was actually a blessing in disguise, because it allowed him to work on the script some more, and edit some of the film's scenes, while Fox recovered for a week.
No actor other than Michael J. Fox was considered for the role of Frank Bannister. Sir Peter Jackson and Dame Fran Walsh were having a meeting with Robert Zemeckis about the film, and his name came up. Jackson liked the idea, and sent the script to Fox.
Charles Starkweather, the real-life killer referenced in the movie, killed eleven people (and two dogs) during a nearly two month killing spree. His 14-year-old girlfriend Caril Fugate accompanied him for and participated in most of the killings. He was caught, tried, convicted, and executed (by electric chair), in a 17-month span. Fugate was sentenced to life in prison, but was paroled after serving 17 years.
