Ok early Slasher film
One of the early 80's Slasher films featuring Scream Queen Jamie Lee Curtis just after she did @Prom Night (2008)
It's actually not that bad for a Slasher film of the time. A few years after pulling a prank on a medical student a bunch of students celebrate New Year's Eve with a costume party aboard a steam train. A lot of the time it doesn't feel like much of a Slasher film, the body count is quite low and the with not a lot of gore. The setting of the film is different and the train adds to the film quite well with the confined spaces. Also featuring David Copperfield. The plot is OK as the killer dons different costumes and there is a surprise as well. Overall a decent 80's slasher film worth checking out. Currently on Amazon prime.

"We listened to a fair amount of Serge during Supergrass. We spent a lot of time in France – recording and writing in different houses and villas – and we’d often hear him on the radio. This one really got to me when I started to get nerdier about sounds – the bass sound is killer, and the drum sounds are great. The one person I’ve worked with who can get close to those Serge drum sounds is Nigel Godrich. We did a few bits of the Hotrats [Coombes and Goffey’s covers side-project] album together. They’re sort of dirty and a bit unstable; there’s something about them. You have to get past what a nutcase he was but it also adds to it; this whole mythology and glamour around him. My sister-in-law bought me this about five Christmases ago and that reignited my love of it."

Cockroach Typewriter
Naked Lunch- is a cronenberg film, it has all of his signautre tropies- horror, sci-fi, insane, crazy, psychological, suspense and drama. This one has to be one of the crazies films he has ever done. Its really insane.

The Plot: Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee (Peter Weller) and his dead-eyed wife, Joan (Judy Davis), like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway (Roy Scheider), Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work -- which he doesn't remember writing.

Naked Lunch has since become a cult film, acclaimed for its surrealistic visual and thematic elements.

Its a crazy movie. A must see film.
