Page "Escape from New York" Paragraph 45

Escape from New York was released on DVD twice by MGM ( USA ), and once by Momentum Pictures ( UK ).

One MGM release is a barebones edition containing just the theatrical trailer.

Another version is the Collector's Edition, a two-disc set featuring a remastered transfer with a 5. 1 audio track, two commentaries ( one by John Carpenter and Kurt Russell, another by producer Debra Hill and Joe Alves ), a making-of featurette, the first issue of a comic book series titled John Carpenter's Snake Plissken Chronicles, and a ten-minute deleted opening sequence.
