"1997. New York City is now a maximum security prison. Breaking out is impossible. Breaking in is insane." For this week's episode we discuss the dystopian sci-fi adventure 'Escape From New York.' The movie stars Kurt Russell, Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine and Harry Dean Stanton. Co-written and directed by John Carpenter. Apologies to pronouncing Lee Van Cleef's character's name wrong everytime in this episode. It's Hauk, not Hawk or Falk.
