**_The Devil’s Train_**

A group of students from Los Angeles take a trip to Serbia to learn about their culture and an ancient ceremony. After a strange turn of events, some of them hop a train to escape. Big mistake.     

"Beyond the Door III" (1989) has the same set-up as the future “Subspecies” (1991), but don’t look for any vampirism as it mixes bits of “The Wicker Man” (1973) with a lot of “Runaway Train” (1985) and a dash of devilry.

It was released on video as “Amok Train” in the USA and as “Death Train” in the UK, both of which are better titles since this is a stand-alone flick with zero to do with the first two “Beyond the Door” movies from 1974 and 1977. It’s an Italian/Yugoslavian production and when Epic Productions acquired the distribution rights, they simply changed its working title, “The Train,” to “Beyond the Gates III” in the hopes of better sales.

Don’t look for any humor. This is deadly serious horror-adventure with increasing supernatural happenings. It has a darkly artistic bent like “Runaway Train,” although it’s not exceptional like that powerful film (not to mention being a different genre). There are no less than four quality women in the flick, but their presence is never really capitalized on (and I’m not talking ’bout nudity or sleaze).

The biggest problem is the puzzling things that happen with little logic. I’d give examples but I don’t want to give anything away. Can everything in the story be logically explained or did the supernatural angle simply give the screenwriter license to include several ‘cool’ aspects with little rhyme or reason?  

The film runs 1 hour, 34 minutes, and was shot in Serbia.
