''Howl'' is a direct-to-video 2015 British indie monster movie, directed by Paul Hyett and starring Ed Speleers. The film is set to be released on Region 2 DVD on 26 October 2015. ==Plot== The plot involves an overnight passenger train, the Alpha Trax, which leaves London at midnight and under a full moon. An hour after departure, the train is travelling through a remote and forested part of the English countryside, in a mobile communication "dead zone". Here the train is forced to undergo an emergency brake to prevent a derailment when a deer runs onto the track. Old-timer passenger Ged (Duncan Preston) recalls a similar event happening in the exact same spot - the Great Thornton Forest Rail Crash of 1963 - whereby all the passengers were found dismembered and partially eaten the following morning. Down-on-his-luck train guard Joe (Ed Speleers) and his unrequited love, the tea-trolley girl, Ellen (Holly Weston), try to hold things together among the group. Having recently been turned down for a promotion, Joe is determined to turn his life around, "grow a pair" and become an "alpha of the pack". However, the passengers of the stranded Alpha Trax are all initially strangers, from different walks of British life, are passively-aggressive towards each other, and demand that Joe get the train moving. The already strained situation is deepened when the train driver Tony (Sean Pertwee) goes outside to remove the body of the deer from the undercarriage. Whilst outside, Tony gets the deer's blood on him, and is suddenly eviscerated by the creature which was stalking the deer - a howling, contorted humanoid with wolf-like legs and glowing eyes, yet disturbingly human and largely hairless. The train's fuel lines are severed and the radio antenna destroyed in a series of attacks, and subsequently the passengers are cut off from the rest of the world. The dysfunctional group are forced to work together - or against each other, with at least one of them undergoing a transformation themselves - as the Alpha Trax is besieged by a family of ancient and murderous werewolves that come from the mists of the forest, and also from within the train. ==Cast== * Ed Speleers - Joe * Holly Weston - Ellen * Sean Pertwee - Train Driver Tony * Shauna Macdonald - Kate * Elliot Cowan - Adrian * Amit Shah - Matthew * Sam Gittins - Billy * Rosie Day - Nina * Duncan Preston - Ged * Ania Marson - Jenny * Calvin Dean - Paul the drunken football yob * Brett Goldstein - David the new Supervisor * Ryan Oliva - Scar Werewolf * Robert Nairne - Hunchback Werewolf * Ross Mullan - Blonde Werewolf 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Howl (2015 film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
