About this product

Product Information

Another John Carpenter cult classic, ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK was one of the best entries in the once popular post-apocalyptic genre which included ROAD WARRIOR and THE TERMINATOR. In 1997, the island of Manhattan has been turned into the world's largest maximum security prison, a place where the worst of humanity is sent to rot. The U.S. Government finds itself in a major crisis when the president's plane crash lands in New York only days before a vital peace summit between major warring nations is to take place. The president survives the crash, but is taken hostage by the denizens of Manhattan and held for ransom. Only war hero turned felon Snake Plissken can save the day, and he is offered a simple deal for his work: save the president and live, fail to save him and die. The one-eyed bandit sets to work, cutting a path of destruction to the president that has to be seen to be believed. Kurt Russell creates the indelible character of Snake Plissken as no other actor could have. Wisecracking and cool under the very worst of pressures, Snake is the ultimate bad good guy. Often copied, but never duplicated, ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK is full of the wit, energy and action that marks a John Carpenter picture.

    A Cult Classic

    Wot can I say this film is Fantastic. The basic plot is an Ex Maverick Marine Snake Pliskin (Kurt Russell) is sent in to New York (Now a huge Prison) to rescue the President who has to deliver an address that will save the nation. The twist to the story is Snake has 24 Hours to complete his mission otherwise he's a dead man. If you like dark, Gritty films you will love this,

    Escape From New York

    Vastly entertaining action movie from thrill-master John Carpenter. Don't think too much about the ridiculous plot but just sit back and enjoy seeing New York as a top security prison(!) in which the President becomes stranded. Enter our hero, himself a criminal, who has less than 24 hours to rescue the man from the White House or die as two mini-bombs in his neck explode. Kurt Russell is terrific as the rescuer.
