One of the most notable things about this Van Damme movie is the cinematography. From the opening scene, with that windy desert road perfectly framing the credits, to the many scenes with shafts of light cutting diagonally across the screen, adding artistic haze it's just not what one would expect from either a martial arts or a Van Damme flick. Somebody took a lot of care to make a beautiful looking movie. Besides that, I did really enjoy it it's one of the few that has a credible script.

A dismal 5.7 on IMDb.

Robert Harmon was interviewed for a French magazine called Impact (which inspired a British rip-off magazine):

Director Robert Harmon's resume is also pretty slim. However, he has done all of the Jesse Stone movies for TV, and they are all excellent. Great storytelling, which is what I thought about Nowhere to Run.
About the cinematographyI found it interesting that before Sam got to know the family, you saw lots of wide shots of the valley and the house. As he got closer to the family and developed a relationship with them, the camera focused tighter on the home. Or maybe I'm reading to deep?

Just watched this yet again this evening. Cinematography is by Australian David Gribble. He hasn't done much movie work since by his entry on the IMDb, but Nowhere to Run is a great-looking movie.

Yes, I was blown away with a 1993 film looking almost post 2k. I think the camera work is almost up to Saving Private Ryan level.
