Come on, admit it...

Wouldn't you all pay good money to see THIS?

 

[darth_librarian]

Yep. They had me on the first line...

The Pitch: ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK meets JACOB’S LADDER...

A hitman, a hooker, a homosexual kid and a hobo suicide make the ultimate prison break... escape from Hell itself!

The Hell / New York thing reminds me of Midnight Nation...

 

[KoshFan]

It kinda does, doesn't it? Except inutterably ridiculous.

Wouldn't you all pay good money to see THIS?

Yes.

Especially as it would have one of my favorite actors:

We open on an aerial shot of a city at night, the camera panning down to Eli (Samuel R. Jackson)

I like Samual R. Jackson

Do you mean Samuel L. Jackson? I don't find a Samual R. Jackson on IMDB?

Yes, that was the joke...

I believe this story was already told by a fellow named Dante.

Then there's Larry Niven & Jerry Pournelle's bounce on the idea, also called Inferno and the shared universe SF series Heroes in Hell.

There is nothing new under the Sun, least of all in Hollywood.

So, is this the flip of the story of Brimstone?
