Full Review | Dec 1, 2010

So thoroughly coated in over-the-top blood and guts that even veteran genre fans will likely be astounded.

| Original Score: B- | Mar 25, 2010

Japanese director Ryuhei Kitamura, who kicked off his career with 2000's impressive micro-budget zombie flick Versus, delivers plenty of stylish visuals and an admirably unrestrained attitude to gore.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 31, 2008

The film hurtles towards the final 'revelation moment' like runaway train. If only it had stopped to take on board some of Barker's heavy mythical dread.

| Original Score: 3/6 | Oct 30, 2008

This sharp and brutal little yarn about a photographer who stumbles across a serial killer is a fan film if every there was one -- and only fans will be able to stomach it.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 22, 2008

We hate to side with the big bad studio, but The Midnight Meat Train -- despite a great title -- really does stink like month-old human flesh.

| Original Score: D | Aug 11, 2008

Before flying off the rails in the final curve, The Midnight Meat Train rolls quite smoothly as a mid-'80s-style psycho-killer thriller a la The Hitcher.
