#Quote
1[his half-joking aside to a PA, shortly before filming the fateful helicopter sequence for Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983)] "How did I let them talk me into doing this scene? I should have asked for a stunt double."
2[on the success of his movie Blackboard Jungle (1955)] "Sure, the reviews were great...but you would've thought they'd picked me up out of an ashtray, and made me a star. Hell, I'd already done Shakespeare and Chekhov and all those other cats."
#Fact
1While he was filming Dirty Mary Crazy Larry (1974) in 1973, he insisted on having a one million dollar life insurance policy before he would shoot any scenes involving the helicopter he was due to ride in. He was very insistent, and when asked why, Morrow replied "I have always had a premonition I was going to die in a helicopter crash!". As Morrow was waiting to film what would turn out to be scene that killed him in Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983), he said to a production assistant, "I must be out of my mind to be doing this. I should've asked for a stunt double. What can they do but kill me, right?!".
2Born on February 14, 1929, the same day as the infamous St. Valentine's Day Massacre in Chicago, an event strongly associated with the Thompson submachine gun. As Sergeant Chip Saunders in "Combat!" (1962), he became an iconic figure also strongly associated with the Thompson submachine gun.
3Morrow had an elder brother, George, born 1924.
4His epitaph was written by daughter Carrie Ann Morrow. It reads, "I loved him as 'Dad'; to everyone else he was 'Vic'".
5His funeral was attended by Combat! (1962) co-stars Dick Peabody and Rick Jason...and by John Landis, who directed Morrow in Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983). All three gave separate eulogies; Peabody also served as one of Vic's pallbearers.
6The 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); for Morrow, it was Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983).
7Personally thanked director John Landis for the opportunity to star in Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983). Morrow was excited about what turned out to be his final film, considering it a welcome change of pace from the myriad (and mostly-foreign) B-pictures he had been forced to fall back on during most of the 1970s.
8Despite 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"
9At the time of his death, he had a pet dog named Macho.
10His parents, Harry Morrow (Morozoff) and Jeanette Kress, were both Russian Jewish immigrants.
11Interred at Hillside Memorial Park, Culver City, California, USA.
12Killed, along with two Vietnamese child actors, in a freak accident on the set of Twilight Zone: The Movie (1983) when a hovering helicopter crashed landed on top of them, in which the top rotor blades decapitated Morrow and one of the children, and crushing to death the second one.
13Attented school in the bronx with producer Brandon Chase
14Daughters, Carrie Ann Morrow (b. 1958) and Jennifer Leigh Morrow, (aka Jennifer Jason Leigh) (b. 1962).
