Summary

Adam and Abe talk about how Carpenter’s Escape from New York was an insanely run production. They talk about the shoestring budget, ways the filmmakers kept the costs low, and how Metal Gear Solid is just a rip off of this character. Abe’s love for John Carpenter remains uncontained and we’re all a bit worried about him.
