I’d like to watch a real good haunted train movie…any that you recommend? I was kinda hoping for one where a train gets switched “for reasons unknown” to another track that leads in adbandoned territory…they travel on their way and then later realize that something doesn’t add up. They still have radio comms with RTC, and on the RTC board it shows the train has been stopped, when really it has been moving. When the crew tells RTC that they took the turnout at MP246.12 RTC tells em to back up,but when they try the track breaks…they have to go forward into dark territory…really dark territory. Wooo Woo Haaaa HAaa [:D]
there is a movie that stars the girl from the Halloween movies…what was her name?..called ghost train…death train…ok…it exists, but my brain is no help tonight…sorry
Their IS a bad horror flick from the early 70’s called Terror Train about a demonic force unleashed on a train traveling across Siberia, but its a real turkey!
Now for shear Terror you cannot beat the Cassandra Crossing, that one is SO lousy you will claw your own eyes out rather than continue watching.
But for shear hilarity Atomic Train has to be the most stupidly funny train flick of the last 1/4 century
That one was great…lol. Flying Alco’s, dropping water on cargo that exploded, conductors on caboose knuckles, trains hitting the conductor that just fell off the caboose knuckles, I guess they never heard of hand brakes, and that was just the train wreck. Not to mention Colorado getting wiped off the map and the nuclear night that resulted from all that crap…my God that was a good movie, lol.
Another retarded train movie: Under Siege II. That was really prototypical, lol. I never knew that fully applying the dynamic brakes meant speeding up…[xx(][xx(][xx(][xx(][xx(]
There was also some horrible movie on the Sci Fi channel (No, I’m not a regular viewer!) starring Jean Luc-Phillips (I think), who is a police officer who chases down a train on which an evil alien has boarded. This “brand new high speed train” is powered by the amazing, supersonic B23-7. I also liked the fact that both of the crew members in the cab are referred to as “Engineers” <>
There was a film like that some years ago “Horror Express” which starred, amongst others, Telly Savalas. Basically an anthropologist unearths a primitive man from the ice in China and ships it back to Europe on the Trans-Siberian express. It comes to life and goes amock on the train, killing people.
Thats the turkey I was referring too, its out their under both names. Roger Corman was reknown for this, take one bad movie, give it another title and reissue it hoping to squeeze the turnip a little more before word got out it was a reissued Dud! [:I]
