Horror SyndromeApr 24, 2023Kinda boring slasher that won't leave a lasting impression on me. Even Jamie Lee Curtis doesn't manage to upgrade this flick.

Action! - The March of the (3) Rogers: Stop Or Buddy Spottiswoode Will Shoot Well, it's about time I watched this one. And what a way to finally see it, on a marathon from a director (the last Roger) who I never assumed would be behind something like this, especially at…
Rafael "Mister Movie" JovineOct 9, 2021I begrudgingly respect that the killer's panic response is to twirl twirl twirl.
Jordan Beaumont AndersonOct 5, 2014Hoop-tober film #2 Roger Spottiswoode's tight little 80's thriller features Jamie Lee Curtis, mid-horror-marathon, and a lovely small role for Oscar winner Ben Johnson. The who-done-it aspect isn't terribly hard to figure out but T.Y. Drakes script does throw a couple…

Jamie Lee screaming like she is out of Activia. The character Doc as the quintessential asshat jock. Ben Johnson as the kick ass conductor and David Copperfield as a creepy magician. This all equals 80's slasher fun on a train.
Todd GainesOct 18, 2021Terror Train has a cool concept for a slasher movie, however, it's really boring, and the pacing of the film is so off. No tension, one dimensional characters and rubbish kills. Jamie Lee Curtis just about saves this from being a monstrosity.

- GENAI lovedTerror Train
This movie ate so bad I can’t even. Evil gay men, Drag queens, unique archetypes that feel genuine, Jamie Lee Curtis at her most scrappy and bloody as she goes through genuinely intense chase scenes with REAL momentum in her slayful thigh high boots AHHHH. I’m so shook. 100/10.
Atticus is "meh" onTerror TrainSo I think people nailed it. This movie is enjoyable for what it is. I do not know how no one recognized him, that ending is so damn boring and it’s barely a slasher, if anything it’s a murder mystery. Jamie Lee Curtis is definitely the best part of this movie
Damien is "meh" onTerror TrainI mean it was good for the time. The twist of the killer is pretty obvious. And for a slasher it doesn’t slash all that much really. If Jamie wasn’t in it probably I would say avoid it but it’s a classic to at least check out.

this was slow. i liked the setting, unique plot, the david copperfield cameo is crazy, but i just couldnt really get into it. the costumes are beautiful though
Adam greco likedTerror TrainIt was an enjoyable New Year’s Eve themed movie but not something i would rush to buy and add to my collection
Edward Kronkvist likedTerror TrainA pretty enjoyable slasher flick with some cool kills and a unique story that it was set on a train.
- Horror for the Holidays lovedTerror Train
A must watch every New Years Eve. Very silly but a great premise. Also JLC’s greatest role? Maybe…
Becky likedTerror TrainWow that was scary Halloween party on a Train. Turns deadly
Figo Nyberg likedTerror TrainPretty cool concept for a slasher, I enjoyed it.

Terror Train is a curious hybrid that doesn't seem to know just what it wants to be. It has, I guess, few artistic pretensions, and yet it's not a rock-bottom-budget, schlock exploitation film.
