This has to be one of the greatest action movies ever. I mean this low budget action flick was crazy! Don "the dragon" wilson delivers an action pack performance that is out of this world. From start to finish you'll be on the edge of your seat with action and drama!
I was lucky enough to get an uncut copy of this flick . I will be honest, I wanted to see this flick because of Barbara Steele. Although I do like The Dragon. Naturally I felt there wasn't enough of Barbara. Also, I felt the director lost an opportunity to create a really great story. I felt the experiments on the children wasn't explored as deeply as it could have been. Overall, the film is a very good action flick. Lots of fun for a rainy afternoon. I recommend it for both fans of The Dragon and the Queen of Horror.
Its really hard to be critical about a movie because i really have a tendency to like any film i get. Even if it sucks i'd still enjoy watching it because it sucks. So when i give 3 stars here, it doesn't mean i didn't have fun watching it. But critically speaking, the movie just isn't good. The plot isn't very original even though it tries to make you think it is, acting is bad but not incredibly bad and the fights are just passable. And yeah, why do the people in these type of movies act so dumb?? And if these people have ESP powers enough to find hidden people and stop tripwires from exploding, how come they cant realize the danger they're in till they have a bullet in their heads??
THE PROPHET is an action thriller with sci-fi elements, starring the one and only Don "The Dragon" Wilson and directed by Fred Olen Ray. With a pedigree of that calibre, how could it possibly go wrong?
The answer is that it doesn't, and THE PROPHET does deliver the goods in fulfilling its aims, but it's not a particularly good movie regardless. Olen Ray has always been a cheapie director and that's no exception here, with little thought or sense having gone into location photography, staging, or storyline.
Still, as an action showcase for Wilson, this could be a lot worse. His acting is very poor but his fight scenes are a lot of fun, and there are plenty of them. Being an Olen Ray movie, the director also finds time for cameos from Barbara Steele and Robert Quarry, but most of the attention is on pneumatic starlet Alexander Keith, who has to be seen to be believed.

I am a big fan of Don "The Dragon" Wilson and when I saw this film in store I grab my money and I buy it. Where was lot of action ( I mean fights) to keep every action fan happy. Fighting choreography was good too. It's not the best "The Dragon" film but I recommend it.
