ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13

With Austin Stoker, Laurie Zimmer, Tony Burton, Nancy Loomis, Darwin Joston
Directed by John Carpenter

This early Carpenter movie is a take on the classic
Rio Bravo western. With an ominous tone a day escalates into a powder keg of violence as a ruthless gang lays siege to a deserted inner city police station with a variety of characters trapped inside, intent on having no-one leave alive. A tense, well-made thriller, which got a remake in 2005.
