Since HORROR EXPRESS is a public domain movie, it’s received a number of lackluster releases of the years. Severin Films and MPI Home Video, however, aim to do it justice. They will put out the picture in a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack on September 27 with a high definition transfer from the original negative. Check out the cover art below. The special features are as follows:

– Murder on the Trans-Siberian Express: interview with director Eugenio Martín
– Notes from the Blacklist: producer Bernard Gordon discusses the McCarthy era
– The Guardian 1973 audio interview with star Peter Cushing
– Telly and Me: New interview With composer John Cacavas
– Introduction by Fangoria editor Chris Alexander
– Theatrical trailer
– Easter egg

The 1973 sci-fi/horror film, also known as PANIC ON THE TRANS-SIBERIAN TRAIN, stars genre legends Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, along with Alberto de Mendoza, Silvia Tortosa and Telly Savalas. Eugenio Martín directs off a script by Arnaud d’Usseau and Julian Zimet.

An English anthropologist has discovered a frozen monster in the frozen wastes of Manchuria which he believes may be the Missing Link. He brings the creature back to Europe aboard a trans-Siberian express, but during the trip the monster thaws out and starts to butcher the passengers one by one.
