I, the Jury is a 1982 American neo-noir[3] crime thriller film based on the 1947 best-selling detective novel of the same name by Mickey Spillane. The story was previously filmed in 3D in 1953. Larry Cohen wrote the screenplay and was hired to direct, but was replaced when the film's budget was already out of control after one week of shooting.[4] He was replaced at short notice by veteran TV director (and helmer of 1976's Futureworld) Richard T. Heffron.[5]
