Like Death Warrant (1990), Bloodfist III: Forced To Fight (1992) and Hard Justice (1995) they copied this film, just Death Warrant is different prison film with my all time favorite action star Jean-Claude Van Damme. After this movie action stars copied this film and make a prison action Drama film. When warden Drumgoole was pushing him to far, he remind me on Sheriff Teasle from First Blood (1982) I love this film and is definitely my third best Stallone favorite film from the 8o's. When he was fighting Chink with the hat on it he definitely reminds me on Rocky. When prison guards are Pushing Frank Leone in a Gateway maximum security prison, his team spirit is unbroken. I would say this film is Rocky and Rambo two person's in one. Lock Up (1989) is underrated Stallone Action prison Drama film. If I ever needed a better line, he'd come up with one.

Now we have a star, a theme, a shooting date, a budget, a studio, but we still have no script. So we hire Jeb Stuart, who was then one of the hottest writers in Hollywood, to rewrite the script and we go off looking for prison locations. All we have is a theme - a guy escaping from prison. So we have a director and a star, but no script. Woods says yeah, he's a good director and you ought to work with him. Stallone calls James Woods and asks if I'm any good as a director. Larry Gordon had a terrible script set in a prison. Stallone had a 'window' which means the guy was available for a certain window of time.

Chartrand for Shock Cinema: ' Lock Up (1989) is a strange lesson in how Hollywood movies are made. Director John Flynn has said of this movie, in a 2005 interview with Harvey F.
