Night Train to Terror is a movie — well, three movies — that has fascinated me for years. I’ve written about the film more than once but I decided to put a video essay together on just how strange it is and how wonderfully odd the people who made it are.
Get ready for nearly half an hour of a deep dive into everything I know about this movie, creator Philip Yordan, the actors, the music and more.
Thanks to genre historian Mike Justice for contributing to this video.
