What happens

I, the Jury is a 1982 American crime thriller film based on the 1947 detective novel by Mickey Spillane. The story was previously filmed in 3D in 1953. Larry Cohen wrote the screenplay and was hired to direct, but—with the film's budget already out of control after one week of shooting—was replaced at short notice by veteran TV director Richard T. Heffron. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
