I'm going to be a philistine and admit to enjoying The Running Man more than The Prize of Peril. I also preferred The Most Dangerous Game, The Tenth Victim, and Series 7: The Contenders. In fact, of all the films I've seen in which people are being pursued for sport, this is the worst one. Perhaps the film would improve if it were available in French--the English dubbing is appalling--but the film is technically graceless, featuring ugly Eastmancolor cinematography and an unattractive and uninteresting cast. Even Michel Piccoli is unable to save the film, which is neither intellectually vigorous enough to 'make a statement' nor camp enough to simply entertain.
score 4/10
