A group of wrestlers are boarding a mysterious train with their coach, only to find themselves dragged away in the night to have their internal organs harvested while they are still alive. Aside from being morbid and gross, this film didn't have much in it. About halfway through it I fell asleep. Watching pervy teenagers who dare each other to run around on a train naked for fun isn't exactly exciting. There was a lot of disgusting rape stuff that was unnecessary and degrading. The organ harvesting plot was apparently based on truth, but it was highly exaggerated and obviously not based on much of anything other than trying to creep people out for a quick buck or two. Unless you're a gore fan and have seen 'em all, I wouldn't watch this.

A group of Americans students are guided onto a train which turns out to be for the purpose of harvesting their organs.If one puts to one side the host of criticisms which can be levelled at the practicalities of the story on screen (lack of medical hygiene, cliché behaviour etc. etc. and unending etc.), there remains one overriding criticism.I have no problem with violence and gore in films - Eden Lake, for instance, featured some savage violence and was an excellent film. The thing which concerns me is when a film takes the glee which this one does in parading, for its audience's delectation, gratuitous sadism just for the sake of it. The deeply unpleasant and graphically sadistic violence shown here has little justification in narrative terms, it is there solely to appeal to the gorehounds.Deplorable.

Oh, how I love the way the almighty good old US of A assumes that literally every single human being from Eastern Europe is a psychopathic butcher with bad personal hygiene, hideous scars all over and a fetish for amateur surgery. Bunch of American college students – athletes participating in an international tournament – miss their reserved train and thus have to travel to Ukraine in an alternative and deteriorating old train that is of course chock full of sadist and deeply unpleasant Eastern Europeans whose hobby is torturing foreigners. Wow, that is so original! No wait, I'm mistaken … it's actually the most dull, derivative and exaggeratedly overdone concept of the past ten years. I read here in the trivia section that "Train" was initially supposed to become a remake of "Terror Train"; a rather insignificant and almost entirely forgotten early 80's slasher starring scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis. So ironically enough, instead of a lousy and totally redundant remake, the film became a lousy and totally redundant clone of "Hostel" and approximately two dozen of other so-called torture porn flicks. But hey, the good news for fans of this particular sub genre of horror is that "Train" is definitely worth a rent if you need to still your hunger for nauseating gore and gratuitous bloodshed. The movie opens already with grisly images of a cadaver being skinned from head to toes and subsequently cut open, and there's plenty of more, including impalement, bludgeoning, throat slicing, meat-hooking, woman beating, raping, axe-wielding, head crushing and disembowelment. All this, of course, without any type of anesthetics and/or sterilized medical equipment! Writer/director Gideon Raff loves to show everything in great detail so be advised that "Train" is a really disgusting and ghastly flick. Thora Birch is too good of an actress to star in flicks like these, but luckily she's there, as the rest of the cast is bland and the maniacs are solely selected on their menacing grimaces.
