In honor of the recent Blu-ray/DVD release of the 1972 classic Horror Express by MPI/Severin Films, Trembles tackles the tale in this week’s Motion Picture Purgatory.
Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing star as rival turn-of-the-century anthropologists transporting a frozen “missing link” aboard the Trans-Siberian Express. But when the prehistoric creature thaws and escapes, it unleashes a brain-scarfing spree that turns its victims into the eye-bleeding undead. Can the crafty colleagues stop this two-million-year-old monster, hordes of zombie passengers, and a psychotic Cossack officer (Telly Savalas) before terror goes off the rails? Silvia Tortosa (When the Screaming Stops) co-stars in this all-time fright favorite from director Eugenio Martín and the blacklisted Hollywood screenwriters of Psychomania.
