Escape From L.A. (1996)

In the year 2000, a massive earthquake ravages the city of Los Angeles, and a religious hypocrite (Cliff Robertson) is made U.S. President for life.

When San Francisco detective Rebecca Madsen (Sarah Jones) is assigned to a grisly homicide case, a fingerprint leads her to a seemingly impossible suspect: Jack Sylvane, an Alcatraz inmate who died over 30 years ago. When her investigation is hampered by enematic government agent Emerson Hauser (Sam Neill) she finds herself working with an unlikely partner, Alcatraz expert and comic book enthusiast DR. Diego Soto (Jorge Garcia), in a bid to piece together the inexplicable sequence of events. The two discover that Sylvane is not only alive, but he’s loose on the streets of San Francisco, leaving bodies in his wake. And even more strangely, he hasn’t aged a day since 1963. But Sylvane is only a small part of a much larger, more sinister present-day threat. Because even though he may be the first, it quickly becomes clear that Sylvane won’t be the last to reappear from Alcatraz.
