When young Julia hops on the night train, she is unaware of what the following hours hold in store for her. It was supposed to be nothing more than a quick job: quick money and quick sex in the anonymity of her private compartment. But what starts out as harmless fun, turns into an infernal trip into sheer terror when three shady characters declare the train their own personal hunting ground. Soon Julia and her fellow travelers fall prey to their perverted games. Tortured and humiliated, they have only one chance to survive: they must strike back – with a vengeance! Soon the night train turns into hell on wheels, unstoppable in its blood-crazed race on the tracks of pure madness...

Terror Express is probably one of the most radical revelations of Italian terror cinema. Ferdinando Baldi's super seedy sleaze excess embodies the very core of the wonderfully perverted exploitation cinema of the 70’s – a shameless hommage to Last House on the Left and I Spit on Your Grave, and at the same time a sign of what’s to come out of Italy in the following years. Terror Express is a dirty bastard of a film, and this is the reason for why it's so great!

It was mate,but this is more attention-grabbing.
Philleh originally posted a link,but hey,the more people that know about it the better
I believe it's limited to 2000 pieces?

[Kungfuzombie]

Oh yeah, I just stumbled acros the other topic. The Exploitation discussion is probably also a better place for this one.

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

No worries mate.It's right at home here as well.

My German DVD of Carpenter's THE FOG arrived today.It states it has 'THE EXTENDED VERSION'.
Anyone any idea?

[Peter Neal]

It's definitely not the remake, reaps?
The redux has an extended cut, as for Carprenter's "The Fog", I kind of doubt that the Germans would have a version, which hasn't already surfaced anywhere else.

PS: I did a bit of reading and as far as I can tell, the "extended version" of the original "The Fog" on the German disc is nothing more or less than the version familiar to most viewers around the globe.
The film has seen various releases in Germany over the years, some of them cut, so I guess they wanted to point out that the movie on the DVD is the complete cut- in a fairly clumsy way!

[The Reaper Man@Cult Labs]

Thanks for that mate.I was kinda hoping you'd answer that!
It says Erstmals die EXTENDED VERSION mit original....which I'm guessing is...contains the extended version of the original?
