4 Shots From 4 John McTiernan Films

Predator (1987, directed by John McTiernan, DP: Donald McAlpine)

Die Hard (1988, directed by John McTiernan, DP: Jan de Bont)

The Hunt for Red October (1990, directed by John McTiernan, DP: Jan de Bont)

The Last Action Hero (1993, directed by John McTiernan, DP: Dean Semler)

Music Vide of the Day: Angry Again by Megadeth (1993, directed by Wayne Isham)


Megadeth’s Angry Again was a part of The Last Action Hero soundtrack, which was as acclaimed as the film itself was criticized.  The song was a hit for Megadeth and the video, which featured scenes from the film mixed with the band performing, went into heavy rotation on MTV.

This video was directed by Wayne Isham, who directed several videos for Megadeth and just about every other band that was prominent during the 80s and the 90s.  If you were in a famous band, you probably worked with Wayne Isham at least once.

Enjoy!
