Following the sudden passing of Ray Liotta, Unearthed Films have announced they'll be releasing one of his more underrated and unknown films, director Martin Campbell's (Casino Royale, Golden Eye) sci-fi film No Escape.
"We are all saddened at the sudden loss of Ray Liotta. His unforgettable performances will remain in the collective minds and hearts of us all," said Stephen Biro, owner and CEO of Unearthed Films. "We are happy to be able to release one of his underrated classics with the sci-fi adventure No Escape. We thank Ray Liotta for the entertainment and for being a part of our lives."
In No Escape...
"The year is 2022. John Robbins (Ray Liotta), a former Marine Captain, has been sentenced for assassinating his commanding officer and is banished to a secret and remote prison island run by The Warden (Michael Lerner). In this prison of the future, inhabited by society's most violent and feared criminals, Robbins is left to the mercy of the elements and his fellow man."
"He finds the island divided into two camps: The Outsiders, led by the brutal and bloodthirsty Marek (Stuart Wilson); and The Insiders, led by the strong-willed, benevolent Father (Lance Henriksen) and his followers Hankins (Ernie Hudson) and Casey (Kevin Dillon). Robbins doesn't care to join either - his one aim is to break free of an island from which there is no escape. To aid him, he steals a powerful and destructive weapon from The Outsiders, sparking off a major war between the two encampments. Now bloody battle and the brutality of hand-to-hand combat will take many lives before Robbins can think of freedom again. Trapped on an island where nature can be as deadly as man, there is only one thought which keeps Robbins alive... escape... escape... escape."
The film was written by Richard Herley, Michael Gaylin and Joel Gross, and features music by Graeme Revell (The Crow, Pitch Black, The Craft, Sin City).
