Synopsis:
From acclaimed director John Carpenter comes the classic Assault on Precinct 13, a taut, well-made, excellently acted, police suspense thriller. A young policeman is put in charge if a nearly deserted L.A. police station, in the process of moving to another location, that finds itself under siege by an inter-racial gang of cutthroats and escaped convicts. Darwin Joston is impressive as a heroic convict, so is Stoker as the unflappable cop.
