Kurt Russell stars in this sci-fi action co-written and directed by John Carpenter. In 1997, Manhattan has been turned into a maximum security prison following a massive rise in crime. While on his way to a summit to prevent a global nuclear war, the President of the United States (Donald Pleasence) crash-lands on the island after his plane is hijacked by terrorists. When it is discovered that he has been kidnapped by the Duke (Isaac Hayes), the top crime boss in Manhattan, former Special Forces soldier Snake Plissken (Russell) is sent in to rescue the president and save his own life in the process. The cast also includes Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine and Harry Dean Stanton.

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 mark a John Carpenter picture.
