"Terror Train" was a horrible movie. I don't blame the director for not being proud of this one at all.

TOO BAD,BECAUSE HE MADE A REALLY GOOD FILM.I WAS REALLY HOPING HE WOULD HAVE DONE AN AUDIO COMMENTARY WITH JAMIE LEE,HART BOCHNER,DEREK MCKINNON AND DAVID COPPERFIELD ON THIS.

Yeah, he's pretty much made crap after this classic thriller. He should be proud of it, as it still holds up today, in my opinion.

Well, the main killer still acted like a wussy emo, but he got what was coming to him in the end.

I guess he's beaming with pride over his later masterpieces, namely "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot!" and "Turner & Hooch". Flawed as it may be, I'd take "Terror Train" over those anyday.

The movie is crap, but I think you should always be proud of your work.

Well from what I heard was he showed up to do it and apparently while he was waiting to do it,he excused himself for a minute,said he would be right back,and never came back.But what I don't understand is,they couldn't also get one of those actors in the film to do it at all?I'm sure Jamie Lee might have done it if the price was right.This is one film I would love to hear a commentary for.There has to be more deleted scenes for this movie and cast auditions somewhere out there.

Well from what I undestand about Jamie Lee and her feelings about Halloween 2,she thinks the movie is crap and hates it.So that might explain why she didn't do it.

reply

[–] shred-com 11 years ago

There's nothing wrong with Halloween 2. It's a great sequel. Idg why Jaime Lee Curtis can't appreciate these films? They have a large following, and are always alot of fun.
Too bad the director didn't do a commentary for this :(. It's a great film, and glad he at least appreciates it.

'Jaime Lee Curtis can't appreciate these films? '
------------
Even if she watches her slasher-films in the privacy of her bedroom, she doesn't wish to be remembered for low-budget slasher films, since she become a more notable serious actress and moved forward. It's only natural for success to change you over time.

[–] rascal67 8 years ago

I think that is just snobbery though IY, if Curtis does feel that way that is. She did do Halloween H20, 20 yrs later. It is slasher\horror films that gave Curtis a head start in movies, not to mention being born into fame and a mother that is famous for a classic horror film. She also gave serious\dramatic performances in these films too, regardless of the stigma that can be associated with them.
