The rules are simple: once you’re in, you don’t come out. But when the President of the United States (Donald Pleasence) crash lands an escape pod into the centre of the city after fleeing a hijacked plane, a ruthless prison warden (Lee Van Cleef) bribes ex-soldier and criminal Snake Plisskin into entering the hazardous Manhattan and rescuing the distraught president from the twisted world of New York and from the demented clutches of its new ruler The Duke (Isaac Hayes) in John Carpenter’s cyber-punk, action, suspense spectacular.Extras:Purgatory: Entering John Carpenter’s ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK: A brand new retrospective documentary produced by Ballyhoo Motion Pictures and featuring interviews with writer Nick Castle, cinematographer Dean Cundey, composer Alan Howarth, production designer Joe Alves, special visual effects artist/model maker Gene Rizzardi, production assistant David De Coteau, photographer Kim Gottleib-Walker, Carpenter biographer John Muir, visual effects historian Justin Humphreys, and music historian Daniel Schweiger.

Well, I love the film so much I bought the disc twice, for one thing lol. My original disc had inexplicably cracked in the centre, of all places. No idea what happened as I'm usually so careful to handle CD's and DVD's like they were new-borns. Anyway, I bought it again. For people considering buying this, I highly recommend doing so. If you're taking a chance on this movie and happen not to have seen it, desertcart do have great sellers for second hand copies. I got mine from a company beginning with a 'Z'. I don't wanna sound like I'm advertising for them. But bottom line is they were recommended to me by a friend, and I know how infuriating it can be buying second hand discs. Sooo many people simply don't handle discs correctly or with care, and soooo many second hand sellers sell these discs. Go with the company I recommended, and you'll get a perfect disc every time. I originally bought this film new. But when I needed a replacement and saw that company had a second hand one on sale here, I thought, "Great!". Not that I don't think this movie is worth buying new twice, but I don't literally cough up money like Donald Trump you know! ;oP Now, onto the disc...There aren't so many extras as say The Thing dvd has. But what is here is good. There's a featurette, a delete scene (which was going to be the original opening scene), and a couple of trailers. There's also not one, but two commentaries. Firstly a John Carpenter/Kurt Russell commentary, and secondly a commentary by Producer Debra Hill and Production Designer Joe Alves, for those of you who interested in that side of things. For those wondering, the picture quality of the feature on this dvd is good. The film itself, if you haven't seen it, is based in a future where the crime rate has quadrupled. Our main character, Snake Plissken, is the guy everybody in our world would like to be lol. And Russell turns in a great performance as our anti-hero, who must rescue the US President (Donald Pleasence turning in a typically brilliant performance) from the prison that New York has become. Oh, and he's only got 24 hours to do this or he's going to die. There are plenty of great performances in this film. And it has a typically brilliant John Carpenter ending, which firstly makes you think "Cool". Maybe, after a couple viewings of this you'll think "A #1". It's not the dumbed-down action film Hollywood seems to want us to get used to in this 21st Century, where we seem to actively be conditioned and encouraged not to think. And it isn't your typical 21st Century Hollywood Nolan-esque (sorry Chris but this is true) film where Hollywood's Marketing Teams are telling you that you're smart if you "get" it. In my humble opinion, those who buy into marketing strategies like that just go to show that they aren't as smart as they think. Anyyyyway...This is simply a cool film, and it doesn't try to convince you you're cool for watching it, nor try to convice you that you're smart. This is Snaaaake Plissken, man. He doesn't care WHAT you think. And he sure as heck won't be told he's smart if he gets something, or that he's "Thinking too much." Not unless you'd like to chew on a knuckle sandwich. ;oD Infact, you know what? This film doesn't do anything to patronize you at all. It just winks at you, and says, "Come along on this ride." Refreshing during these patronizing times we're living in. Who knew film marketing was once that way? ;oP Vive Escape! Vive Snake! Vive la Revolution! Review: Great film - A great classic, at a great price, brought back a lot of memories watching this again, a must watch. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07H5DVFZX | | Actors | Donald Pleasence, Ernest Borgnine, John Carpenter, Kurt Russell, Lee Van Cleef | | Best Sellers Rank | 3,562 in DVD & Blu-ray ( See Top 100 in DVD & Blu-ray ) 73 in Documentary (DVD & Blu-ray) 1,573 in Blu-ray | | Country of origin | United Kingdom | | Customer reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (6,833) | | Language | English | | Manufacturer reference | 5055201841476 | | Media Format | Blu-ray | | Number of discs | 2 | | Product Dimensions | 1.7 x 12 x 16.1 cm; 90 g | | Rated | Suitable for 15 years and over | | Release date | 26 Nov. 2018 | | Run time | 99 minutes | | Studio | Studiocanal | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Donald Pleasence, Ernest Borgnine, John Carpenter, Kurt Russell, Lee Van Cleef - **Format:** Blu-ray - **Genre:** Documentary, Mystery & Thrillers - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 99 minutes ## Images ![Escape From New York [Blu-ray] [Region B] [2018] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81UW8zTlrcL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Let's Hear It For Essscape.....Concrete Jungle Authority Is Mocked From.... *by R***P on 1 May 2014* What can I say about Escape From New York?

I rocked up to his house and it turned out he couldn't play 4k, oops! Luckily, this has both. Excellent movie, a lot of fun. ## Frequently Bought Together - Escape From New York - They Live - The Fog --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/77502186-escape-from-new-york-blu-ray-region-b-2018](https://www.desertcart.co.th/products/77502186-escape-from-new-york-blu-ray-region-b-2018) --- *Product available on Desertcart Thailand* *Store origin: TH* *Last updated: 2026-04-29*
