Catchfire is a 1990 American romantic action-thriller film directed by Dennis Hopper and starring Hopper, Jodie Foster, Dean Stockwell, Vincent Price, John Turturro, and Fred Ward, with cameo appearances by several notable actors, including Charlie Sheen, Joe Pesci, Catherine Keener, and Bob Dylan. The film is about an artist on the run from the mob (Foster), who is pursued by a relentless hitman (Hopper) who begins to fall in love with her. The film was disowned by Hopper before its release, after it was edited without his involvement by the producers. He is therefore credited under the pseudonym Alan Smithee. Released by Vestron Pictures on April 3, 1990, Catchfire underperformed at the box office and received overwhelmingly negative reviews by film critics. In 1992, an extended director's cut of the film was released under the new title Backtrack. It runs 18 minutes longer than the theatrical version and restores Hopper's directorial credit. In additional to cable TV airings it has been released on VHS, DVD and Blu-ray.
