its also worth noting that amok train is an Ovidio G. Assonitis production. (hence the alternate title beyond the door 3) Its like a lot of his output, shite, but very entertaining shite with plenty of charm.

Porky's is the greatest, though animal house was damn fine.

I guess the main point was American pie stole a lot more from porky's, its entire central plot about the teens wanting to lose their cherry's and of course sticking dicks where they don't belong.

But, thankfully, AMOK TRAIN is an exception; it was filmed in 'scope and the cinematography is superb, using the Serbian locations to good effect. The cast are actually pretty good (Bo Svenson taking top honours. Keep a look out for Alex Vitale from STRIKE COMMANDO) and the gore effects are impressive (the scene in which one of the characters tear their own face apart is the highlight).
I've always avoided this one because I really dislike most late 80s Italian horror. I'll take your words as an endorsement and seek it out. Cheers!

It's probably the best one I've seen. Of course it's not without it's silly moments, such as the train derailing itself to storm across a lake, but it's a lot of fun.

Even some of the stuff from the 70s heyday is not without moments of stupidity

Watched "The Revenant" tonight. Totally messed up film. Funny, violent, great effects and a cool ending. Loved every minute. Highly reccomended.
