The Lady is the star
Macha Meril, as "The Lady On The Train" is the star of this seasonal, fun for all ages, thriller.
Yes, it rehashes the plot from "Last House On The Left" but it's done effectively and brutally. Lisa and Margaret don't stand a chance against Blackie, Curly and beautiful, sexy Lady. I particularly like the inventive use of the phallic knife. The final third of the film, where the killers meet the victim's parents is predictably implausible but gratifying nonetheless.
Demis Rusos' epic song which accompanies the opening and closing credits is wonderfully insensitive and inappropriate.
I'd love to see this on Christmas Day television.
7/10
