yendiOh my god. They're remaking Terror Train.
The original, as some of you might know, is one of my favorite guilty pleasures of the late '70s (technically, it came out in 1980), combining so many fun elements of that era (transgendered killers, vanishing bodies, the use of not-so-subtle dramatic irony as people assume the killer under the mask is the friend/lover/whatever, and, of course, the ubiquitous Jamie Lee Curtis). Oh, and hey, it featured David Copperfield, playing (get this) a cheesy magician!
I can only hope the remake offers as much as the original.
