Escape from New York (1981)

This week we start a brand new film review cask called, "The Future Doesn't Look So Bright," looking at films with a post-apocalyptic setting. Up first is the cult classic, Escape from New York, which introduced the world to Snake Plissken. Journey with us as we discuss everything from the music to the weird and wild Donald Pleasence.
