One of the posters says this film was cobbed together from other incomplete projects, though says two were actually finished. I wonder if they were released in some other form. At any rate, this movie is garbage. It has a car accident quality for awhile, you can't look away, but it's overcharged tempo even wears thin, and it becomes very tiresome. It is amazing that somebody gave somebody money to make this, but it might have been tainted South African money. Just totally bad. No attempt to credit names John Phillip Law or Cameron Mitchell, which is probably just as well for them, poor guys. The rest has all been said. We always seem to blame the decade for this sort of bad film, "it's so seventies" "it's so eighties" but really it just is bad and would be in any ten year span.

Amicus-wannabe horror anthology that begins with a clip from the worst music video ever before we get to God and Satan sitting on a train telling stories. We'll return to the music video in between each story. The first of these stories is about a man taken to an asylum, where he is hypnotized and forced to go out and bring more people to the asylum to have their organs harvested. Dumb and nasty. The second story is a real trip. A young woman gets involved with a gross guy who quickly has her doing porn. Then some frat boy sees her in one of the pornos and falls in love. So he seeks her out (we have a word for this today) and the two become a thing. But the gangster doesn't like it so he takes them to a club that gets off on deadly Russian roulette-type stunts. Very badly edited and impossible to take seriously. The story's end is told rather than shown. The third story is about a cop and the wife of a famous atheist trying to stop an immortal disciple of Satan. The best of the three stories but still it falls short of its potential by a mile. The oddly-inserted not-so-special effects sequences ruin any atmosphere or suspense.The cast is stocked with mostly unrecognizable faces. Among the few exceptions are John Phillip Law, Ferdy Mayne, Night Court's Richard Moll (playing two roles), and Hollywood vets Cameron Mitchell and Marc Lawrence (he's special, he gets two death scenes). The dialogue is terrible with many unintentionally funny lines and exchanges. An example is early in the first story when the nurse enters the room and the doctor asks her how the new patient is. She responds "Belligerent, as usual." To which the doctor replies "He's a VERY handsome man." What? Oscar-winning screenwriter Philip Yordan is credited with the script. I have no idea what his excuse was for this but it must have been a doozy. Poor acting and directing, ugly aesthetics, laughable narration, an obtrusive music score, and even a joke of a martial arts fight scene. Trash enthusiasts will like to hear there are cheesy stop-motion effects, cheap gore, a break dancing interlude, and topless women throughout.It's a weird movie, for sure, and one with more than a little bit of "so bad it's good" appeal. I've read that it was cobbled together from three other movies, which makes a lot of sense given the poor editing where scenes cut from one to the other and skip over anything that resembles a natural transition. The whole thing appears to have been financed by the change producer/director Jay Schlossberg-Cohen found in his couch. It's garbage but there are some laughs to be had at its expense, if you are in the right sort of mood when you see it.

Another film from the Drive-in 50-pack Mill Creek collection. I seem to recall seeing this film in the 1980s as a teen. I easily forgot about it and now have a copy of the film. It's really not a film worth seeking out and it's just barely OK to watch.Horrible soundtrack and break dancing! OH boy!! This is an anthology with 3 stories to watch in between watching God and Satan on a train debating about the fate of certain characters within each story.It's an OK watch nothing special. Mild sex and boobs, terrible music, and break dancing for those interested! The stories are meh! The third of the trilogy is the only half-way decent story of them in my opinion. You aren't missing anything by missing this film.2/10

(There are Spoilers) Three stories of the macabre are strung together in this anthology of good versus evil that takes place on a train going to blazes. A lot of the suffering were forced to put up with on this train ride to terror has to do with this annoying and obnoxious rock band lead by it's lead break dancing guitarist Byron Vordon. Vordon goes on endlessly singing the same song over and over again, until happily the train cashes into flames, "Everybody but You".On the train ride to terror is the King of Evil on earth, as well as in the entire universe, Satan himself played by this guy who calls himself, in the movie credits, Lu Sifer. The part of God is played by Ferdy Mayne who comes across looking like either "The Man from Glad" or "Kentucky Fried Chicken's" Colonel Sanders. As both God and Satan spar about whom of the people we see in the three stories will end up on the good or bad side of life the rock music by Vordon & Co. goes into overdrive. This almost causes those of us watching and listening to the loud mindless and ear splitting music to suffer a major brain hemorrhage. The three stories discussed by God & Satan have to do with mans, and woman's, inhumanity to man. In the end we get to see who comes out on top: The pro-God or Pro-Satan people in them.Story #1 has to do with a human chop-shop ring that uses body parts, taken involuntarily from live people,to be used in medical facilities all over the country as organ donations. As you would expect the people running the chop-shop Doctors Fargo & Bremer, Sharon Ratcliff & Arthur M. Braham, try to one up each other with both doing themselves in. Fargo & Braham in their evil greed to be #1 or top banana turn on each other and end up with their organs going for sale to the highest bidder. Story #2 has to do with this "Death Club" who's members play games to where their brought to the brink of death, the ultimate earthly and living sensation, just to get a euphoric charge out of them. Some of the members get a lot more then that in accidentally tripping over to the other side of life. The story ends with a pit and the pendulum sequence but instead of a slicer an 1,250 pound swinging ball is used to crushed the unfortunate persons, tied down on the floor, skulls in.Story #3 is a real mind-twister that has so many sub-plots in it that it could easily be made into a ten hour TV mini series. There's the holocaust survivor Mr. Weiss, Marc Lawernce, who sees the head Nazi who now calls himself Olivier, Robert Bristol,who murdered his entire family back in WWII. The Nazi now a jet setting modern swinger looks not a day older then he did back in 1944 some forty years ago! There's also the defrocked priest Papine, Mauric Grandmaison, who's life long ambition is to defeat Satan and his minions. Papine for all his noble efforts in trying to rid evil from here on earth later ends up dead ,from drowning, with the number 6-6-6 embedded on his body. there's also the police lieutenant, Cameron Mitchell, who at first not believing his next-door neighbor Mr. Weiss, the holocaust survivor, soon finds out that he was really on to something but not before whoever Mr. Weiss was talking about, Olivier, got wise to him.Were also given this added attraction in story #3 with Nobel Prize winning writer James Hansen, played by Richard Moll who also played Otto the assistant in story #1, that has to do with the either existence of God or Satan or, to make things even more interesting, the non-existence of either one of them. Hansen ends up getting the worst of it, being crucified, in betting on the wrong horse, or horses, in his belief that God and Satan are only man made myths and nothing else. As for Hansen's wife Clair, Faith Clift or leap of Faith, she ends up doing all the dirty and bloody work in battling Satan, or Satan's spawn, the mysterious Mr. Oliver in of all places the hospital emergency/surgery ward. This after Clair purposely run the guy over almost killing him.It's there in the hospital emergency ward that Clair, a licensed doctor, goes on in her feverish and heart-stopping work to save the world from evil. This is by Clair surgically removing Olivier's heart in what has to be the sickest and most unsanitary, as well as blood-splattering, open-heart operation in medical history.With time running out and the train to terror pulling into it's last stop, death and destruction, God and Satan count up the points, in the three stories, to see who ended up winning in getting the most persons in them to see things their way; Just guess who ends up with the winning tally!
