Im Zeichen des Bösen
Spielberg lobbied to have Dennis Weaver in the starring role because he admired Weaver's work in Orson Welles' "Touch of Evil". Weaver repeats one of his lines from "Touch of Evil", telling the truck driver in the café that he has "another think coming." This phrase is commonly misstated as "another thing coming", as Weaver's character did in "Touch of Evil".
