Vic Morrow Quotes:

Sheriff Roy Childress: I want you out of this town today McCord.


Shark: Danny... We know you're in here. You come on out now, and you got a chance. You can't get away, Maxie's got the whole town covered!
[Shark flips out his switch-blade]
Shark: This is it, buddy! This is the big get-even day! We've got a lot to settle up, you and me. Danny I knew it was your old man that night. I knew it, and I slugged him anyway, so you come on out and get me! You come out and get me, or we're coming in!
[Shark and his cohort continue to try to trap and corner Danny. Danny climbs up and stands on the bottom sill of a hidden window on the wall in a dark part of the alley as he hides from Shark and his cohort]
Shark: I'm gonna let you in on a little secret, kid. We've been laughing at you. Me and Maxie, ever since it happened we've been splitting a gut. You told me once we'd tangle again. Well, now's your chance. Come on, Danny Boy!
[Shark's cohort inadvertently walks below Danny, then Danny jumps down from the window sill onto, and knocks the cohort out]
Shark: You got him?
Danny Fisher: [Using a muffled voice, pretending to be Shark's cohort answering,] YEAH!
Shark: [thinking his cohort knocked Danny out, but it's the other way around] Hold him. I wanna put my mark on him. Where is he?
[Danny surprises Shark as he charges at him and a fight ensues to a permanent finish]

Vic Morrow Facts
The pilot episode of his TV series "Combat!" (1962), was directed by Boris Sagal. Two decades after collaborating, Sagal and Morrow would die almost exactly the same way (struck by a helicopter's rotor blade)...within a year of each other, both while shooting a movie on location. For Sagal, it was World War III (1982) (TV); for Morrow, it was Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983).

Despite playing heavies before and since, plus Saunders in "Combat", Morrow disliked guns. This according to Combat Co-star Rick Jason, who said Vic turned down his offer to shoot skeet, by saying he "can't stand to kill clay"

His epitaph was written by daughter Carrie Ann Morrow. It reads, "I loved him as 'Dad'; to everyone else he was 'Vic'".
