Pociąg grozy
Directed by Eugenio Martín
- flavo4322 listopada 2025Horror Express was one of those unexpected gems I first stumbled across on a Sunday Matinee, and it immediately pulled me in with its strange, irresistible blend of horror, sci-fi, and period mystery. Seeing Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing together was already enough to guarantee my attention—they’re an amazing duo whose films I always enjoy—but then Telly Savalas showed up and somehow elevated the chaos even further. The story itself is genuinely intriguing, mixing ancient alien intelligence with a locked-room mystery aboard a trans-Siberian train. It’s the kind of premise that keeps you watching even when the budget clearly couldn’t keep up. Special effects? Practically none to speak of, but that hardly matters. The atmosphere, performances, and sheer ambition carry the film far better than flashy visuals ever could. Horror Express remains a wonderfully odd, thoroughly entertaining classic that proves a strong story can outshine any limitations.
- Vincent Reggiannini8 listopada 2025If you can stand watching this silly movie longer than 15 minutes you have my sympathies. Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing pretend to act around half a dozen unknown and unappealing Spanish “actors” pretending to be human beings. Impossibly attractive young women force themselves to pretend to flirt with old men while a faceless stunt man stumbles around the sets in a rubber suit, probably trying not to realize how silly and impossibly un-scary he is. I only forced myself to watch this because it has roots in J. W. Cambell’s “Who Goes There”, which eventually turned into “John Carpenter’s The Thing”. Beyond that this is a sickeningly pathetic “horror” movie from the seventies, with all the nuance of a 1920’s black and white “talkie” featuring acting that makes afternoon TV soap operas look like Academy Award worthy classics.

Pociągiem kolei transsyberyjskiej ze wschodniej Azji do Europy podróżuje brytyjski naukowiec. Jego bagaż stanowi znaleziona przezeń w lodach Himalajów tajemnicza skamielina - obiekt badawczy, być może, zdaniem właściciela, brakujące ogniwo ewolucji. Wkrótce w pociągu dokonuje się seria morderstw - jako pierwszy ginie bagażowy. Ofiary łączy jedno - całkowicie białe oczy i, jak wkrótce potem wykaże prowizoryczna sekcja zwłok jednej z nich, pełne "zgąbczenie" mózgu. Gdy już wydaje się, że źródło zła jest wyeliminowane - pojawiają się kolejne zwłoki...
