Hee hee! I cheated the railway company last week...I bought a return ticket but never came back! Just as well really, it was for a ride on ....THE HORROR EXPRESS! Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing together once more in this fine Spanish movie, directed by Eugenio Martin. Lee has a fossil in a box, which he believes to be the 'missing link' between men and apes. Speaking of fossils, Cushing plays a rival doctor,arriving with his midget assistant, Miss Jones. This woman has the most amazing eyebrows ever captured on film...they leap and dance from one part of her face to another at random, and frequently in totally opposite directions. The beastly box of bones causes mayhem and murder on the Trans Siberian express, possessing a police inspector and a mad monk (who looks EXACTLY like Charles Manson) to do so. Telly Savalas arrives, looking for rebel stowaways, and the creature kills again and again. A classic! More from Sneaky Elephant's trainset of terror SOON!
