Synopsis:

1997. The future. Snake Plissken is pulling off one of the most daring heists of the late 20th Century at the Colorado Fedaral Reserve, but with the United States Police Force is hot on his heels, will he be able to ... ESCAPE FROM COLORADO?


Intentions:

I wanted to do something with this fun little prologue to Escape from NY that wasn't used. It definitely didn't fit in the film, but it was neat, so I presented it as it's own prequel film.

Additional Notes:

I've done my best to upscale the poor VHS footage to 720p, colour correcting, as well as stretching it back to its original aspect ratio so that it looks presentable.


Other Sources:

Escape from L.A.: Original Score Album From the Motion Picture - Out of Time (unused) was now used as the end credits music Escape from New York: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack - Main Title was reused over the opening titles.
