One year before his contribution to the Nightmare on Elm Street franchise (Part 4, The Dream Master), Renny Harlin got practice with the malevolent supernatural in Prison, a gooey haunted penitentiary thriller that finds a wrongfully convicted-and-executed inmate back for revenge.
When a prison is reopened years after Charlie Forsythe’s death by electrocution, Warden Ethan Sharpe is plagued by sweat-soaked nightmares. Soon the incarcerated men and guards begin to die in horrific ways, making it quickly apparent that these are no accidents. Starring a baby-faced Viggo Mortensen, Prison teems with fire, smoke and billowing light, and some really disgusting deaths that will have you swearing you see Freddy Krueger in the haze.
