I remember watching this years ago and it still send a chill down my spine even after repeated watching.
Swedish terrorists attack the U.S. mission at the International Health Organisation in Geneva, Switzerland where the following battle causes massive breakages in a nearby lab which spreads a mysterious plague on the men. One of them escapes and embarks on the cross-Europe train (with up to 1000 people on board) which final destination is in Stockholm.
Which follows is a suspenseful thriller which sees tense situations on both the train and back at the IHO headquarters which lead to the Cassandra Crossing of the title.
Burt Lancaster stars the U.S. Colonel in charge of the investigation while Richard Harris stars a famous neurologist who becomes doctor on demand on the train itself and both play their parts well.
An all-star cast also features Martin Sheen, OJ Simpson, Sophia Loren, Ava Gardner and Lee Strasburg.
It's a must watch.
