A scientist separates the spirit of death from the body with tragic results

The opening shot of this horror film is an aerial view of Clapham Junction, with the Wandsworth and Putney lines at the bottom. Unsurprisingly, many Southern suburban EMUs and other items of coaching stock are much in evidence.

Nearest to the camera, the 4-car BR-blue liveried EMU is heading towards Clapham Junction (out of picture to the left). The carriage sidings behind are rammed full of various items of rolling stock.
