I saw a review of a total mess called "night train to terror" that was frankensteined into existence with bits from like 3 cheap schlock movies.  The uniting theme was a train was taking peolle who didn't know they were  dead to the afterlife while presumably godand the devil we're debating their fates.

In one scene the two come to an impasse and a human, apparetky,  the train conductor or coachman, suggests a solution that seems to leave both equally displeased but willing to accept it.

I kinda liked the idea of a "mere mortal" resolving a dispute between cosmic powers like that.

I kinda think the basic idea of NTtT could easily be redone as a much better movie despite how utterly dismal the original was.

Anyone here know a really bad (and yeah this was baaaaad.)  dmovie with the germ of a good idea that could and should  be salvaged?

Santa Claus Conquers The Martians is absolutely screaming to be remade by Tim Burton (or perhaps Rob Zombie).

Titanic. Awful movie and it was longer than it actually took the ship to sink, so they could have done the whole thing in real time.

Seen The Nightmare Never Ends, which was used as part of Nighttrain, but I've not seen Nighttrain.

I too would like a remake of Santa Clause Conquers, but I like the original just fine.

Damnation Alley has a lot of potential. I'd maintain the Landmasters, spice up the special effects, and make the story a la Fallout (the video game). They encounter all types of monsters in varied settings and pick up various characters along the way.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
