- Some versions of the film feature an opening crawl after the opening credits that offers some exposition before the first scene begins. It reads: "On November 1st, 1988, Travis Knight witnessed the murder of a Texas mobster. The FBI has his family in protective custody. The mob wants to talk to Travis and find out for themselves who did the shooting. They want to talk to him right now. Travis Knight is 9 years old." This crawl is missing from some television airings, as well as the recent on-demand DVD released by MGM. In its place are several (somewhat awkward) seconds of black screen where it would usually be before the first scene begins.
- The film was cut by MPAA to avoid an X rating, the killing of Travis family was originally longer and so was the showdown, with blood explosions in close-up.
- The Blu-ray contains the footage that was the cut for the "R" rating in the special features.
