It was only a matter of time before Terror Train got its very own remake. I also didn’t realize Tubi is now making movies. Of course, Tubi does have the biggest and most diverse horror section on any streaming service, including Shudder. But, you have to sit through a few blocks of five or six commercials that repeat every 15 minutes or so.
From IGN on Youtube:
Tubi has collaborated with Incendo on the remake of the 1980 cult classic horror film Terror Train, which starred Jamie Lee Curtis. A Tubi Original, Terror Train is slated to premiere in October 2022 as part of the platform’s annual month-long Halloween-inspired genre celebration, “Terror on Tubi.” The new cast is led by Canadian actress Robyn Alomar (“Utopia Falls”), who gives a breakout performance and is poised to be crowned the newest scream queen, as well as Tim Rozon (“Schitt’s Creek”). The remake is written by Ian Carpenter and Aaron Martin (“Slasher”), and is directed by long-time Incendo collaborator Philippe Gagnon (“Amber Alert”). Terror Train is produced by Graham Ludlow and Kaleigh Kavanagh; executive producers are Graham Ludlow, Shari Segal, and Brook Peters. In this contemporary reimagining, eerie excitement is in the air as Alana (Robyn Alomar) and a group of college seniors boards a party train for a Halloween-themed bash but their fun spirals into fear as attendees are killed off one by one by an unknown killer. Concealed by costumes and plagued with chaos, everyone is a suspect. As the party train continues full steam ahead, Alana must race against the rails to find the killer before she becomes the next victim.
Terror Train is due on Tubi October 2022.
