Midnight Meat Train: (2008)

11/8/2024

Synopsis: A murderer in the city underground catches the eye of a photographer looking for something ‘real’ to capture.

The Good: This was one of my favorite stories by Clive Barker. It was actually my instroduction to his writing many years ago. The concept has a lot of potential and I did like the acting from Cooper. It was an interesting direction for a rather short story.

The Bad: They had a lot of opportunities to make this great but unfortunately a low budget, a weak script and some very obvious special effects derailed that.

Best Line: “I’ve got a train to catch.”

Fun Fact: Was originally meant to be a sequel to Candyman (1992).

Verdict:

Technical: 5.7

Entertainment Value: 6.25

Genre Rating: 6.5

IMDb Score: 6

Total: 5.95
