Warriors come out and play. Local artists Sarah Gail Hutcherson and Bask are hosting an art exhibit on May 31st at Vitale Studio inspired by the cult classic flick from the late 70’s. The line-up is banging!(Derek Hess, Tes-One,Steak Mtn., Erik Jones, Dolla Bill and more) Check the flyer for info.
The Warriors was a film about street gangs in New York City in the late 70’s / early 80’s. This story follows a group of nine gang members from the Warrior street gang located near Coney Island in New York. A City Wide meeting has been called and each gang must send nine members of their respective gangs to this meeting. Chaos breaks out during the meeting and the warriors are blamed for the problem. Now the gang has to make it back to Coney Island alive while being hunted down by thousands of rival gang members across the city. As corny as some of the scenes are, this movie is still a classic.
