All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

Train of the Dead (2007)

AKA: Chum Thanng Rot Fair Phii

Director: Sukhum Mathawanit

Premise:
Five robbers crash into a shop and take the owner hostage. They seek refuge from the police on a train where they soon find out the passengers are all deceased and the train is heading for their final judgment.

My Take:
The movie just didn't click with me. I've seen far better Thai movies with a plot revolving around death.
The characters in this one either fall flat or go over the top. And there's nothing too interesting.

Rating: Warning
