“Terror Train” is a decent slasher with a cool train setting and a few fun moments. It’s not very scary and it drags sometimes, but Jamie Lee Curtis keeps it watchable. Solid, not great.

I’ve never seen a group of college kids so excited about a train
Those masks creep me out so bad and I don’t know why
