You know what? They're worth it.
ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK kicks so much ass as a guerilla-gritty made lean mean B-action machine. Plus, Isaac Hayes as the Duke of New York. He makes the U.S. President his bitch.
"Ya da duke, a #1!"
ESCAPE FROM L.A. I enjoy. Not as stylish nor as grungy as EFNY, but EFLA works as an insane escapist(pun!) Italian cinema cartoon that Hollywood rarely produces without going into Michael Bay stupidity. Plus, Bruce Campbell and Steve Buschemi in the same movie.
Its money.
THE LONG RIDERS is a pretty good Walter Hill western that had the gimmick of real-life actor brothers (Keach/Carradine/Quaid clans) as the gang itself. Really, I miss that Walter Hill of THE WARRIORS era instead of 48 HOURS era.
DARK BLUE is decent, but Kurt Russell gives it his all...and he is worth watching just for that.
I really hit paydirt. Wal-mart also had:
Escape from N.Y. special edition dvd 2 pieces The running man special edition 2 disks total recall special edition escape from alcatraz the saint
blu-ray/dvd/vhs/more. 1449 + titles.
