Alfonso Brescia

Alfonso Brescia (6 January 1930 - 6 June 2001) was an Italian film director of low budget films, sometimes credited as Al Bradley or Al Bradly. Film buffs mainly know him for the 4 low budget sci-fi films he hurriedly directed in 1977-78 to capitalize on the success of "Star Wars". He directed "Ator 3" in 1986 without the serie's originator Joe D'Amato's permission, and D'Amato later said that he considered the "Ator" series only consisting of films # 1, 2 and 4 (all of which D'Amato directed himself).
