Note : You guys like John Carpenter, I've noticed, so here's some more for you. One of the essential 80s sci-fi action films, and very modern for being from 1981, it brings together a hell of a cast, with Kurt Russell, Lee Van Cleef, Ernest Borgnine, Donald Pleasence, Adrienne Barbeau, Harry Dean Stanton, and motherfucking Isaac Hayes all stretching their legs. It's fun, fast-paced, and pretty damn cynical, with Carpenter's hate for cops, politicians, and general authority figures on full display, but it also has some emotional moments as the good guys get picked off one by one in more or less tragic and senseless ways. Its influence can't be overstated, being important in the late 70s/early 80s wave of dystopian and/or postapocalyptic action thrillers, inspiring a bunch of knockoffs, many of them unsurprisingly Italian, as well as a specific line inspiring William Gibson's Neuromancer (if you're familiar, you'll pick it up), and the main character inspiring, well, a certain batshit insane Japanese gentleman.
In the distant future of 1997, Manhattan has been turned into a walled prison where criminals roam free and do what they want inside, but are ruthlessly slaughtered if they try to escape. This seems to work out ok for everyone on the outside, until Air Force One is hijacked by a terrorist, and since the president is Donald Pleasence instead of Harrison Ford, he ends up in the hands of the criminals who rule Manhattan. One-eyed former special forces operator and now criminal Snake Plissken is sent in to get him out, with a hard time limit of 24 hours before tiny bombs implanted in his neck kill him. Inside the anarchic prison colony, he teams up with a bunch of misfits to track down the president, but must face off with the tyrannical Duke, who rules everything with an iron fist (and the best pimped up car ever seen).
This 4k remaster is quite good, but it managed to both be a little grainy and slightly lacking in fine detail, and the high contrast on such a dark film means the blacks are a little crushed. Still, not much to worry about, the 5.1 remaster is nice and clean, and as usual the commentary tracks are quite interesting, especially the one with Carpenter and Russell.
Hot tip

HeVK torrents always have lots of keywords. Try searching for “ hevk sci-fi action” for more futuristic fist fights, “ hevk postapocalyptic” for more of what happens after the end (although this is more during), or “ hevk 80s” for more from the decade of hard men with luxuriously soft, fluffy haircuts.
