TERROR TRAIN is a really underrated piece of horror filmmaking. I think after ROAD GAMES it is probably the Curtis film that is too often over-looked. Made at a time when everybody was busting out a version of Michael Meyers, but with gallons of more gratuity and blood, this little freak-show came out and was genuinely creepy as hell. Even more impressive considering this was director Roger Spottiswoode first time at bat. Spottiswoode would go on to re-define horror with STOP! OR MY MOM WILL SHOOT. Jaime Lee Curtis would go on to show Dan Aykryod her rack.
