Prison Planet

Prison Planet, also known as Badlanders is a 1992 science fiction movie directed by Armand Gazarian. It appears to have been made on a small budget, which either detracts or adds to the film depending on viewer opinion. It is still sometimes shown on the SyFy. It has not been released on DVD in the U.S., although VHS copies can still be found.
