When it comes to apocalyptic, sci-fi dystopias, few ’80s movies feel as prescient as John Carpenter’s Escape from New York. At the time, the story unfolded in the not-too-distant future, with the island of Manhattan being turned into a maximum-security community, a home for the worst of the worst criminals. The only one who could be trusted to enter the island to rescue the president, who had crash-landed there, was former Special Forces operative Snake Plissken, played by Kurt Russell.
