Chainsaw Slasher I'm familiar with Nick Millard. From Criminally Insane to his ridiculous Death Nurse films. Both Death Nurse films and the sequel to Criminally Insane are shot on video. But for The Terrorists, the film is shot on what looks like grainy 16mm stock, which is the only improvement from his previous films. But with this video release, every shot is improperly framed. The lower half of the screen seems to be cropped out. It's quite odd. Did the video distributors mess with the film or is Milliard just horrible with a film camera? I don't know. Regardless, the film is shot just as bad as his previous films. The pacing of the editing is all wrong. The only action in the film are the gun fights, which are just a back and forth of gun shots that seems to go on and on without anyone moving or dodging bullets. It seems the budget for this film was a lot higher than those of his previous films (since it was shot on film and in Germany). At least his horror flicks had some cheese appeal, this was just boring. It's also worth mentioning that I notice the doctor from Death Nurse in this film.

udar55 When a Congressman's soldier son is gunned down in Germany, Military Investigator James Luke (Marland Proctor) is sent to solve the crime. Getting grief from his CO, Luke teams up with German cop Paul Steger (Hans Grabinger), who is not known for his subtlety with crooks (he kills them). The duo eventually uncover a radical terrorist organization led by a guy named The Professor who are planning to assassinate Jimmy Carter when he arrives in Munich.This Nick Millard directed actioner runs just 60 minutes and refined viewers will recognized his inimitable style carried over from his horror features like CRIMINALLY INSANE and SATAN'S BLACK WEDDING. To my knowledge, he has made three action films (this, .357 MAGNUM, GUNBLAST). All three star Proctor and are quite possibly the worst movies ever made. Of course, they are all highly entertaining. From his off center framing to chainsaw editing (the shoot outs are simply a work of art!), Millard makes Ed Wood look competent. The best part of this flick is when the heroes realize The Professor is named so because he is a college professor. Way to keep on the DL Prof! This was made in 1980 and actually shot on location in Munich, Germany. Which makes me wonder how the hell Millard managed that? As with GUNBLAST, Millard inserts a 10 min. striptease to pad the running time. Anyway, it wasn't released on video until 1988 by World Vision.
