Franco Prosperi (2 September 1926 - 17 October 2004) was an Italian film director and screenwriter, active between the mid-1960s and the early 1980s.
Born Francesco Prosperi in Rome, Prosperi began his career as an assistant director of Mario Bava, with whom he also wrote several of his screenplays.[1] In 1966 he made his directorial debut, credited as Frank Shannon, with the thriller film Tecnica di un omicidio and over the years he build a solid reputation as a director of crime-action films.[1] He also occasionally directed comedies (with Lando Buzzanca or Alighiero Noschese) and, in the final stage of his career, at the beginning of the 1980s, several low-budget sword and sorcery films.[1]
