Die Warriors (1979)
Die Warriors, so nennt sich eine gefährliche Gang, die in den Häuserschluchten von New York sein Unwesen treibt. Zwischen den verschieden Clans in der Stadt herrscht ein wahrer Territorial-Krieg um jeden Zentimeter Raum. Eines Tages wird zwischen den Gangs ein Waffenstillstand ausgehandelt, doch als dann Anführer Cyrus auf hinterhältige Weise ermordet wird, fällt der Verdacht schnell auf Mitglieder der Warriors und es droht ein schrecklicher Krieg, der alles Leben in New York zerstören würde. Die anderen Clans schließen sich zusammen und beginnen die verstreuten Mitglieder der Warriors zu jagen. Swan der Anführer der gejagten Bande, muss einen Weg finden, um sich und seine Leute sicher nach Coney Island zu bringen, der einzige Ort in New York, an dem sie sich relativ sicher fühlen können. Doch wie sollen sie einen Weg durch die tausenden von brutalen Schlägern finden, die überall in der Stadt nach ihnen suchen?
