Terror Train Rocks!
|
My reviews of slasher films probably make one think I must have worked on these films...actually no, but I have written, produced and directed 15 independent low budget horror films.
I have an affinity for the slasher genre, especially the early 80's when horror was at it's best.
Terror Train's plot is as simple as most slasher films, but yet it remains towards the top of my slasher favorites for a number of reasons:
Jamie Lee Curtis is great as the heroine of the film, the kills are inventive and effective, the pace of the story moves quickly and the camera-work and score really highlight this film.
Another nice thing is that the killer uses a lot of trickery and he becomes almost omni-present at times. The beginning of the film sets the tone and the cruel prank that is played is actually quite gruesome, which mentally disturbes young Kenny and scars him for life. I can understand why.
Now Kenny is a bit older and much more devious as he sneaks onto the train, getting revenge on those who wronged him. This is a standard horror plot. I've even used it in one of my films, but it's the approach that makes Terror train unique.
I recommend this to slasher film fans!
