Title: David A. Prior
Post by: hellbilly on September 14, 2008, 02:32:40 AM
I've been on a David A. Prior kick lately, trying to track down most of his movies. Here's a list of Prior films I have watched so far, ranking from best to worst:

1. Deadly Prey (1988)

Prior's best film in my opinion. Zany Rambo rip-off with non-stop wild action. A masterpiece in need of A DVD release!

2. Killer Workout (1986)

A dazzling gem of unwanted humor, this fitness-slasher is the perfect party movie.

3. Sledgehammer (1983)

Prior's directorial debut is a marvel of slasher action paired with the supernatural. Great stuff.

4. Lock 'N' Load (1990)

Prior's most ambitious work. Action-drama with a well thought out plot.

5. Killzone (1985)

This one's foreshadowing Deadly Prey and is quite action-filled to the brim.

6. Night Wars (1988)

Mixing Vietnam-trauma with horror. Had its share of interesting moments.

7. Mutant Species (1995)

The cheese didn't always deliver, still a solid effort.

8. Night Trap (1993)

Great B-Cast, disappointing outcome. OK with a few beers.

9. Mankillers (1987)

Could've been a classic but these sizzling Rambonettes are lacking bite.

10. Operation Warzone (1988)

Prior's worst, unless one gets a kick out of being sucker-punched.

I haven't seen Future Zone but I have seen the sequel(?)  Future Force which I believe Andrew reviewed a while back.   The whole flying glove attack scene near the end is priceless.  And David Carradine seems like he's drunk in all of his scenes as well.
