Description :
From the depths of the Arctic and believing his discovery to be the 'missing link' Prof. Saxton (Christopher Lee) is transporting back the frozen body of an ape-like creature on board the Trans-Siberian Express. His rival, Dr. Wells (Peter Cushing) remains sceptical of the creature's origins. The full terror of Prof. Saxton's discovery becomes apparent when the first victims are found dead and drained of all memory.
Trapped and frozen for more than two million years, the evil force is now free and able to transfer its presence through possession into any living being. Believing that Satan is at work, a small army of cossacks are ordered to board the train and stop the killings. Time is running out for the remaining passengers.
The last hope for survival lies with Prof. Saxton and Dr. Wells who team together to stop the evil about to be unleashed on mankind.
Comments :
Well, what do you expect, with Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, two of the greats, we are going to expect something good. That we do. This is a typical old horror classic that is worth the watch.
Cut-Outs :
None as far as I know.
Verdict Out of 10 :
8 out of 10. A very good film. Lacks a bit of gore but the orignality is their with the way the ape-like thing kills. Also, with Mr. Lee and Mr. Cushing, this makes the film special.
