Summary from BigStar.com:
"Eye-patched mercenary prisoner Snake Plissken gets forced into another
kamikaze mission in this long-awaited sequel to "Escape From New York."
This time he must scour the earthquake-demolished, prison streets of Los
Angeles, circa 2013, to find and disable a so-called "Doomsday Device,"
as well as rescue the President's daughter, who's in on the scheme.
Packed with clever digs at the Hollywood firmament, as well as juicy bits
from B-movie staples Paul Bartel, Bruce Campbell, and Robert Carradine.
Snarling, unshaven renegade Snake Plissken is back in this sequel to the
1981 cult hit "Escape from New York."
The year is 2013, and Los Angeles is now a decimated, apocalyptic island,
thanks to a massive earthquake. It is also home to every lowlife, sleazeball
and degenerate that the U.S. can ship there to keep America clean, moral
and pleasant. The no-nonsense Snake is ordered by the President to go
to L.A. and retrieve a black box, the contents of which can shut off electricity
around the world -- permanently. Snake had better act fast, for he only
has 10 hours to complete this deadly mission... or die trying."
