Escape From New York (1981)

Russell was great.
Trying to get in the mood for Grindhouse, I got a chance to visit this cult classic with Kurt Russel as a bada** going in to rescue the President.
Now, I have to say this film has a great cast: Jamie Lee Curtis (Narrator/Computer Voice), Lee Van Cleef (164 films!), Ernest Borgnine (189 films!), Donald Pleasence (206 films!!), Isaac Hayes (Chef from South Park), Adrienne Barbeau (Wasn't she OJ's girlfriend at one time?), Harry Dean Stanton (163 films and Big Love). That alone makes it worth watching.
Russell was great and you could see great potential. I am hoping that potential comes to fruition this week in Grindhouse. We'll see.

| This was one of the best action films of the 80's..........I really feel sorry for John Carpenter......he made a lot of great films that did not make a lot of money.......I still watch this one a few times a year! |
