When passengers on a train are attacked by a creature, they must band together in order to survive until morning.
An unashamed B picture, but fun.
The black humour hits home without breaking the tension, while the gore – as one might expect given Hyett’s background in makeup effects – is grimly convincing.
A fatal lack of levity spoils this tale of ravenous lycanthropes chewing their way through a train full of commuters.
Despite some familiar genre tics, good editing and sympathetic portrayals give this British film a lift.
