It's excessively and imaginatively gory, presented in a straightforward manner, but with the slightest hint of a wink.

Not at all Butchered.

Before flying off the rails in the final curve, The Midnight Meat Train rolls quite smoothly as a mid-'80s-style psycho-killer thriller a la The Hitcher.

... remarkably effective and, when it finally arrives at the end of the line, admirably simple.

this devilishly ambiguous thriller leaves viewers to decide whether to take the conventional or the less-traveled tunnel through its narrative network - and the results are a stylishly bloody descent into madness, murder and hell itself.

We hate to side with the big bad studio, but The Midnight Meat Train -- despite a great title -- really does stink like month-old human flesh.

So thoroughly coated in over-the-top blood and guts that even veteran genre fans will likely be astounded.

This is the best Clive Barker-inspired movie in a long, long time -- probably since "Hellraiser III" in 1992.

The film hurtles towards the final 'revelation moment' like runaway train. If only it had stopped to take on board some of Barker's heavy mythical dread.

Midnight Meat Train brings an unabashed brutality to the horror genre.
