Lock Up - Stallone
Set the bar as a prison flick
Some great actors in it, Sonny Landham, Billy in Predator (that's my seat ace)
Donald Sutherland as the evil sadistic Warden with a deep grudge (had the eclectic chair restored into full working order) is literally superb. 'This is hell and I'm going to give you the guided tour'
Tom Sizemore as the scheming double-crossing Dallas who does the right thing after betraying Frank Leon (Stallone's character)
Frank McRae as Eclipse, sure blocked a lot of light. Gentle giant and body man at the garage
John Amos as Meizner - 'Two things, I am Meizner, don't **** with Meizner'
Larry Romano as first base - he was just a kid, brutally murdered to crack Frank
Jordan Lund as Manley - Evil guard in on the grudge with Drumgoole against Frank
Totally underrated at the time and still now.
“When we're in a sober mood, we worry, work and think. When we're in a drunken mood, we gamble, play and drink. But when our moods are over, when our time is come to pass, we hope they bury us upside down, so the warden can kiss our ass!”
