Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Director David A. Prior made 30+ direct-to-video action films; this is considered one of his 'better' ones. The bar was subterranean.
The 'future' aesthetic—leather jackets, neon grids, mullets—influenced ironic party aesthetics for decades. This film is why we can't have nice cyberpunk.
