One of the writers was Daniel Petrie, Jr. who also wrote BHC.

I noticed this too and was about to add it to the trivia section when I came across your post. In both movies, interestingly, Foster and McCabe were a source of irritation for the protagonists. I wonder if the writer used those names to work through personal issues that he had with real people with those names.

It was obviously not just a coincidence, smartass.
