Escape from New York (1981) - Newspaper Ad

Oakland Tribune - July 9, 1981

I was so stoked to see this. Sure, it was not a horror movie, but it was a new John Carpenter movie and Debra Hill Production. The dynamic duo responsible for Halloween and The Fog. Adrienne Barbeau was in it, too! And Lee Van Cleef! And Ernest Borgnine! And Harry Dean Stanton!

Man, what a cast. What a concept. What a fun movie it turned out to be. I loved it then and still do today.
