Synopsis
John Carpenter's classic Escape from New York has been stunningly restored in 4K. The year is 1997 and in a poIice state future the island of Manhattan has been turned into a maximum security prison. The rules are simple: once you're in, you don't come out. But when the President of the United States (Donald PIeasance) crash lands an escape pod into the centre of the city after fleeing a hijacked pIane, a ruthIess prison warden (Lee Van Cleef) bribes ex-soIdier and criminaI Snake Plisskin into entering the hazardous Manhattan and rescuing the distraught president from the twisted worId of New York and from the demented clutches of its new ruIer The Duke (lsaac Hayes) in John Carpenter's cyber-punk, action, suspense spectacular.
The 2018 restoration of ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK was made from the 35mm original camera negative. A fuII 4K 16bit workflow was appIied to create a 4K DCP, UHD version and a new HD version which were produced with the same high technologicaI standards as today's biggest international film releases.
The restoration and new UHD version was coIour graded and approved in Los AngeIes by the Cinematographer, Dean Cundey.
