Terror Train. Fun slasher with jamie lee curtis set on a train. Scream factory's transfer looks great and the film is an effective, though somewhat tame entry into the slasher genre.
When a stranger calls. Mill creek have delivered an exellent transfer on this one. THe opening sequence of the babysitter being terrorised with the caller asking "have you checked the children?" is a classic of the genre. I always thought it went a little off the boil after the great opening but this time around I really enjoyed Charles Durnings hunt for the killer that takes up the rest of the film is more enjoyable than I remembered.
Didnt get a chane to sit through happy birthday to me but at least caught a look at the pq. Excellent and manages to top the us anchor bay disc which is no mean feat. Has the origional score as well so probably the perfect release of it (barring anyone uncovering the deleted gore footage and re-instating it!)
