In the early 1900s, anthropologist Alexander Saxton (Christopher Lee) unearths what he believes to be the scientific find of the new century: the centuries-old frozen body of a gigantic ape-like man, a veritable "missing link". Booking a ticket on a train back to Europe with his crated-up, but still very healthy discovery, he joins an international group of passengers on a nightmarish adventure aboard the HORROR EXPRESS. Even before the train embarks, things are amiss: a thief who tries to pick the lock of the monster's box is discovered dead, his eyes turned completely white like two poached eggs. After the creature awakens and begins knocking off other travellers, Saxton is forced to enlist the help of rival scientist Dr. Wells (Peter Cushing). HORROR EXPRESS is a relentlessly entertaining cult favourite and by far the best 1970's pairing of genre stalwarts Cushing and Lee, this time around not as enemies (as in their Hammer Dracula pictures), but as reluctant comrades forced to combat a malign, extraterrestrial, and almost diabolical creature bent on human destruction.
