The Midnight Meat Train, a review by Rich

Title: The Midnight Meat Train

Movie Count:18  
TV Ep. Count:13  

Runtime:100
Certificate:NR
Year:2008
Genres:Horror

Plot:Struggling photographer Leon Kaufman's obsessive pursuit of dark subject matter leads him into the path of a serial killer, Mahogany, the subway murderer who stalks late-night commuters - ultimately butchering them in the most gruesome ways imaginable.

My Review:
Talk about jumping in at the deep end, this was gruesome and graphically gory to the extreme. The majority of the film lulled you into a false sense of security, Cooper and Bibb are a lovely couple and acted their roles brilliantly. But when Vinnie appears in a scene, accompanied by haunting heartbeat audio, a whole new form of barbaric killing dominates the screen.
This is OTT in terms of the violence and its portrayal, at least in my limited experience, but i still have to say it was train wreck viewing at its best, you literally couldn't stop watching just to hopefully see the murderer get popped at the end.
If you like hardcore slasher/horror, this is right up your street.

While I enjoyed this one, I found it to not be quite as good as The Conjuring, I just found my intrest drift off the movie with some scenes. But definitely worth the time out in to watch it.

Dracula: The Series


Children of the Night
When Eileen Townsend gets transferred to Europe, she takes her sons (teen-age Chris and 10-year-old Max) to stay with her uncle, Gustav Helsing - descendant of the famous vampire hunter

My Thoughts:
This is a Saturday morning series geared towards kids that originally aired in (I believe) 1990 for just the one season. I never seen this show when it originally aired. But when I saw the DVDs for sale cheap I thought it would be a good show Britt and I could watch together. And Britt does enjoy this one. Though she does say it has one of the most annoying opening themes ever!  It is a cute show... I am glad I added it to my collection. One of the characters in this series is played by a very young Mia Kirshner.

My Rating:
