Action International Pictures
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Action International Pictures (AIP) is a film production and distribution company founded in 1986 by David Winters, David A. Prior and Peter Yuval. It has also provided distribution for videos of many foreign films.
According to the Internet Movie Database, AIP produced 17 films and distributed 41 films and videotapes between 1988 and 1994, and were involved in a total of 46 films in this period. Fifteen of these films were written and directed by Prior. Winters directed three of the films, including Space Mutiny, and produced 28 of them. Yuval wrote, directed, and produced two of the AIP films (Dead End City (1988) and Firehead (1991)) and directed two more.
Like many low-budget film productions, AIP's original films used many of the same cast and crew in many of the films, including David Prior's brother Ted as an actor and writer; the apparently versatile William Zipp as actor, writer, director, producer, and stuntman; and an occasional well-known actor like Cameron Mitchell (featured in Space Mutiny and three other AIP ventures).
