Mr. Eighties

Silly me. I forgot to add this symbolic 80’s movie Escape From New York. It should’ve been one of the first ones that I added. What a great movie. The whole story about most of NYC being taken over by street guys and the president being held for ransom. What do they do to get him back? They send in Snake Piston lol. What a a name.
