I have had this film on video for about 10 years and I have seen the part with the little boy behind the curtain more times than the producers, I have never seen a shotgun or a knife and I've never seen it him move, but also I don't think it's a cutout of Ted Danson, this has puzzeled me for 12 years, there are other scene's in the film shot in the same place and the "cardboard cutout" isn't there. Why would somebody put it there in the first place then move it to a different room later on, and beside's the "cardboard cutout" is wearing jeans, I don't know if that is custom in America but here in England we wear trouser's.
