Another of my favorite horror movies, one that never gets old. Great cast, great script, genuinely creepy and scary! Cushing and Lee are both great in their respective scientist roles, playing two of my favorite horror movie protagonists ever created. I assume there is much more mad love for this movie than, say, Lair of the White Worm? If you have not seen it, do so immediately, it's as fun as a horror movie can get!

the trailer (in German, unfortunately): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztgcUksBqWA

part one, you can watch the whole thing on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jqh4FnhpUw4

Okay, so unlike Lair of the White Worm, really enjoy Horror Express. Not a Hammer film but had all the same elements. The dubbing hurts it some however. I would put this in the 'interested in a period remake' catagory.

I like it in a Saturday-afternoon-monster-movie kind of way. The budget DVD of it I have is the full movie according to IMDB, but it's so full of holes that I have to wonder if there is a longer version out there.

Always loved Telly in this and the Rasputin character. I need to find a decent DVD as my VHS copy seems about ready to snap.

Ah, this is a long time fave of mine as well, such a fun rollicking story, the look and feel of the film, with the strange beast and the actors and the music and the Telly showing up as a Cossack, it just continues to be cooler and cooler as the train rolls on. Highly recommended.
