Escape From New York
Kurt Russell (Stargate) stars in
a high-velocity sci-fi action-thriller from director John Carpenter (co-written by Nick Castle) that sets the screen ablaze
with heart-stopping suspense, outrageous stunts and imaginative special effects. Bristling with riveting chases and hard-hitting
fight sequences, Escape From New York is your passport to nonstop excitement!
In a world ravaged by crime, the
entire island of Manhattan has been converted into a prison which houses the world's most brutal inmates. And when the President
of the United States (Donald Pleasence) crash lands inside, only one man can bring him back: Snake Plissken (Russell), a notorious
outlaw and former Special Forces war hero who, in exchange for a full pardon, descends into the decayed city and wages a blistering
war against the captors. But time is short: in 24 hours, an explosive charge planted inside Snake's body will end the mission
-- and his life -- unless he succeeds!
