Escape From New York (1981) Full Length Reaction
Added 2023-08-23 16:15:16 +0000 UTCI don't give a fuck about your war... or your President.
Snake Plissken in the house! This past weekend my Dad brought this movie up out of nowhere and said it's one of his favs, so it's cool to be checking it out this week. Very cool premise, a super renegade Kurt Russell, and a killer synth-y score by John Carpenter. Is the sequel any good?
Movie runtime: 1:38:56

In 1981 the year this movie was released, I graduated high school (turned 18). Me and high school friensds watched several times. We had access to a VHS player (huge and expensive back then). As mentioned in comments above, the President is the psychologist from Halloween (1978). Skip the sequel Escape from L.A. (1996).

2023-08-25 19:30:53 +0000 UTCI would agree but its still fairly bad lol.

2023-08-24 21:17:43 +0000 UTCI dont think anybody has mentioned, but Kurt Russell was a child actor for Disney and made a bunch of movies, then he played one of his most iconic roles (in my opinion): Elvis Presley is John Carpenter's the Elvis TV movie. Thats what made Carpenter want to cast him as Snake, even though the studio wanted more recognizible actors and they didnt think he would make a good antihero, and they were totally wrong ππ€
