ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK (1981) Filming Locations | 40th Anniversary! | St. Louis, MO THEN AND NOW 2021
For the 40th Anniversary of the release of John Carpenter's classic, Escape from New York, Virginia and I headed up to St. Louis, MO to visit the filming locations. It was a nice and easy location hunt as they were all fairly close together (aside from the bridge scenes).
