	DVD Talk Review: Terror Train
		Terror Train opens with a fraternity prank, and since this happens in a slasher flick before the opening credits, clearly something is going to go terribly, terribly wrong.
		Terror Train is frequently cited as one of the better masked slashers from the early '80s, but whatever appeal it may hold escapes me. Terror Train is too boring and unsuspenseful to check it off in the "so bad, it's good" column, and the lack of scares or suspense leaves little to recommend.
		Video: Terror Train is a double-sided DVD, and full-frame and anamorphic widescreen presentations of the movie are offered on opposite sides of the disc.

	11 March 2004 Madrid train bombings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 11 March 2004 Madrid train bombings (also known as 11/3, 3/11, M-11 and 11-M) were a series of coordinated terrorist bombings against the commuter train system of Madrid, Spain on the morning of 11 March 2004, which killed 191 people and wounded 1,460.
		Shortly afterwards, police identified an apartment in Leganés, south of Madrid, as being the base of operations for the individuals suspected of being the material authors of the Madrid and AVE attacks.
		Despite Spanish Government's claims that the explosive used was titadine, a type of compressed dynamite used by ETA in recent years, forensic analysis of one of the remaining unexploded devices found at El Pozo revealed the explosive used there to be Goma-2, manufactured in Spain and not used by ETA since the 1980s.

		To their horror, what they discovered instead was a full, 11-kilogramm butane gas tank, an alarm clock, batteries, cables and a 4.5 liter bottle filled with a gas mixture.
		Expressing the shock of the German investigators, Juergen Kleis, head of the Dortmund police force’s criminal department said the explosive in the suitcase his city received was capable of detonation and that there would have been many dead and wounded upon activation.
		Police however have distributed 15,000 fliers asking for the public’s help in the investigation, while investigators, armed with photographs of the two deadly pieces of luggage, are traveling on both trains during the hours it is believed the suitcases were left, looking for witnesses who may have seen the culprit(s).

	Terror Train
		TERROR TRAIN's biggest fault is the often excruciatingly slow pacing, and it doesn't help that the identity of the killer is telegraphed to the audience right from the opening scene.
		But TERROR TRAIN is still, at best, just a footnote in the slasher sub-genre, and only ardent fans will not wish they could reclaim the 97 minutes they'll spend watching it.
		Terror Train is best viewed in the wee hours of the morning over one of those microwavable chicken cordon bleu thingees and a room temperature of 76 degrees.

		It was really in Terror Train where she earned the infamous term “Scream Queen” and although she truly wasn’t boosted into superstar status until after Prom Night and True Lies, she still was really good in Terror Train.
		The only thing that sucks is that my Terror Train cassette is missing its case and it won’t play (because it’s in crappy condition due to the fact that my family has owned it since 㥚 and that it’s been in a box (on the very bottom) for about four years.
		What makes Terror Train’s serial killer so cool is that he sports a lot of types of costumes so that no one will know who he truly is. He takes all of his victims’ costumes after he kills them so I thought it was sort of a cool concept.

		I rented Terror Train (1980) with a friend of mine about ten years ago and I remember after we watched it we were both like "Is that it?" Not recalling what our criticisms of the film were at the time, but I decided to give it another chance, and you know what?

	Terror Train
		Terror Train has a decidedly above-average pedigree for a slasher film, but ultimately it falls just as flat as so many other films of its ilk.
		Granted, the confined setting lends itself to some suspenseful sequences, so once the train gets moving, so to speak, it becomes mildly engaging; alas, it runs out of steam along the way and chugs along to a predictable finale.
		Johnson, cast as the affable train conductor with a love for magic tricks, is especially helpful in making the film bearable although his screen time isn't as copious as his top billing would seem to indicate.

	Intelliflix: Rent Terror Train on DVD
		On New Year's Eve the boys of Sigma Phi invite friends to a masquerade ball aboard a chartered train, where a knife-wielding psycho crashes the party.
		I was in this film as an extra, I played a guy dressed as a clown, got paid 20 bucks and a free meal for a days work, what a joke, should have flipped the camera off in a background scene.
		"Terror Train" is, overall, a fun, one-time ride which will fit in nicely with the DVD collection of slasher/'whodunit' fans, and it makes for especially good viewing around Halloween, what with all the masks and outfits and such.

	TERROR TRAIN (page one)
		TERROR TRAIN was one of the first slasher movies out of the gates in the wake of John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN (1978); a comparison even more pertinent due to the fact that it also starred that film's heroine- Jamie Lee Curtis, who, with this cheese-fest on
		As they gather around the old fashioned steam train the crowd of forty or so raise merry hell in their costumes (Jamie Lee is done up like a plucky pirate); and Ed, dressed as Groucho Marx, entertains them with his 'hilarious' (and please note the brackets) comedy routine with a blow up doll.
		Also getting ready to board the train is bug eyed David Copperfield- here looking a shade less orange than usual; who is along to provide the 'entertainment' for the journey (again, please notice the brackets).

		Taking place mostly on a coal-powered excursion locomotive called 'Rascoe's Folly' (which is under the watchful eye of engineer Ben "The Wild Bunch" Johnson), "Terror Train" creates, instantly, a deadly little feelin' of claustrophobia, and works largely due to this atmosphere.
		"Terror Train" is your basic early 80's slasher 'vehicle', if you'll excuse the expression.
		But there IS some nice photography, mostly the nighttime exterior shots of the train, and a cool and ominous opening credits sequence that shows the train, shrieking whistle, steaming pipes and all, setting out on it's murder-plagued voyage.

		Baharan, 35, said he was told in October to undergo the scuba training in southwestern Palawan province, where he periodically received cell phone messages from Janjalani and Sulaiman "asking him how many fathoms he would be able to dive," the report said.
		The training was in preparation for a Jemaah Islamiyah bombing plot on unspecified targets outside the Philippines that require "underwater operation," Beharan is quoted as saying.

	The DVD Journal \| Quick Reviews: Terror Train
		Terror Train (1980), which marked the directorial debut of film editor Roger Spottiswoode, is certainly one of the more stylish slasher flicks made in the hugely profitable wake of Halloween (1978), though its straining for respectability works as much against it as it does for it.
		The venue for his vengeance is a chartered train on which the pranksters and the rest of their Greek system brothers and sisters plan to celebrate their commencement with a heapin' helpin' of pot and Schlitz.
		The conductor of the train is the kindly old Carne (Ben Johnson), who's also a bit of an amateur magician.

		Anyway, David was 23 during the entire filming of Terror Train, which is from 1980 like Maureen says, and not 1979 that I have seen witten on a few web-sites.
		Actually, the reason why a few horror-geeks is tempted to call it a 1979 flick, is because they have it included in their list of the best horror-movies of the 70´s etc.
		David had finally turned 24 when Terror Train was finally released though, but only for 17 days, so obvioulsy the final cut was done before that date.

		Terror Train has remained a favorite of mine for many years, and before this DVD I hadn't been able to see this movie for probably five or so years, maybe longer.
		If you're a fan of this movie, I do recommend you looking into getting this DVD of Terror Train, for I don't think we will see another DVD release of this for a while.
