LAST PASSENGER - in cinemas 18 October

Starring Dougray Scott, Kara Tointon and Iddo Goldberg. Lewis Shaler (Dougray Scott) is an overworked doctor and devoted single dad heading home with his young son Max on the last train from London. When he strikes up a relationship with a beautiful and flirtatious stranger (Kara Tointon) Lewis believes life is finally looking up. But events then take a dark turn when Lewis discovers the guard has mysteriously vanished and the brakes have been sabotaged. Unknown to the handful of remaining passengers, a vengeful sociopath has taken control of the train and is hell-bent on crashing it, taking his passengers with him to the grave. As the speeding locomotive ploughs through stations and level crossings, the body count rises and panic turns to terror. Lewis realises that the police are powerless to stop the diesel-powered 'slammer' train, and the desperate passengers must find their own way out of this nightmare. Lewis takes the lead in a series of increasingly perilous missions to stop the train before the driver can realise his dark plan... LAST PASSENGER, directed by Omid Nooshin, is a contained yet kinetic thriller with a relentless momentum, melding suspense, action, and genuine heart to get audience pulses racing -- at 100 miles per hour.
