SUMMARY : Sixteen-year-old Lisa Stradi and her cousin Margaret Hoffenbach are preparing to spend Christmas in Verona with Lisa's parents. On the train from Munich, they encounter two fugitives on the run and a nymphomaniac bourgeois who are causing trouble. When the train is stopped at night in a small Austrian station following a bomb threat, the two young girls decide to change trains and flee the unwelcome visitors. Alas, the evil trio crosses their path again. Isolated in a carriage, Lisa and Margaret will endure a real ordeal.

ABOUT THE FILM : Over time, it has become a classic of exploitation cinema. The Beast Kills in Cold Blood is the work of Aldo Lado , also known for his gialli (I Am Alive! and Who Saw Her Die?). With its first part anticipating The Terror Express (Ferdinando Baldi, 1979) and its climax in the direct tradition of The Last House on the Left ( Wes Craven , 1972), The Beast Kills in Cold Blood boasts a top-notch cast, including Macha Méril (Shivers of Anguish), Enrico Maria Salerno (The Bird with the Crystal Plumage), Flavio Bucci (Suspiria) and Irene Miracle (Midnight Express, Inferno), who was making her feature film debut here.
