Gideon Raff speaks about his remake of the 80’s horror classic - Terror Train

In the current trend of remakes, it’s good to see someone do something a little different. Gideon Raff, the director of the remake of the Jamie Lee Curtis 80’s horror classic “Terror Train”, has spoken about the film from the set in Bulgaria. He says the film has, ““nothing to do with the original.”

He continues to say that the film won’t be a remake of the original as it has an original screenplay. The film is about a group of American athletes competing in Eastern Europe. They’re supposed to get on a train to continue the competition and, due to a night out partying the previous night, they miss it. They get on a different train to catch up with their team mates and horror ensues.

Apparently, Gideon researched real crimes that happen in Eastern Europe and based it on that - not a good advertisement for Eastern Europe!

What about an illusionist like there was in the original? He says, “There is no magician. No…no David Copperfield, that’s very ’80s.” And there’s me thinking it’s cool to be retro!

Thora Birch, Derek Magyar, Gloria Votsis, Kavan Reece and Gideon Emery all star in the remake.
