Escape From New York (7" + Blu-Ray Box Set)

"Boasting one of the most iconic characters ever in Snake Plissken, and an effective sci-fi set-up, this is entertainment of the highest order." – Empire Magazine

A thrilling landmark film that jolts along at a breakneck pace, Escape From New York leapt to cult status with high-octane action, edge-of-your-seat suspense and the mind-blowing vision of lone warrior Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) battling his way out of a post-apocalyptic Manhattan!

John Carpenter’s fan-favorite Escape From New York is the seventh release in the deluxe box set series of collaborations with our friends at Shout! Factory / Scream Factory!, joining Halloween, and Halloween II and III, Prince of Darkness, They Live and Big Trouble in Little China.

This edition includes the new UHD 4K/Blu-Ray release of the film with a limited-edition collectible slipcover packaging with newly-commissioned art by frequent Carpenter collaborator Chris Bilheimer, and a Sacred Bones exclusive black and blue starburst with red splatter 7” featuring the iconic main theme from the movie and previously unreleased version of “69th Street Bridge”; newly recorded by John Carpenter along with his collaborators Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies.
