I am a massive John Carpenter fan and dont expect another EFNY or Halloween so take his films as they come. Its more of a homage to the first than a follow up, loads of quips, lines and similar scenarios to EFNY. Though the surfing scene does push it!  Wish he would do another, perhaps a different country......Escape from U.K? |
Im in the same boat as you i take all Carpenters films on their own merits and so i enjoy all his films. Im just about to take a pizza out of the oven now and pop in Escape from New York so a fun night ahead.
