      Maybe someone here can help me out with this.  I can recall watching the first half hour or so of a movie which I believe was titled "The Mark of Death."  It started off with a scene of two people running across a field, and they had bandages wrapped around their heads.  They appeared to be escaping from some place, and they were chased by some evil looking men in a car that was equipped with a large blade that popped out of the side of the car.  Apparently the two escapees were cut in half by that blade.  The scene then switches to a London club, where a songwriter is bitching about bands ripping off his songs, which leads to him getting punched in the mouth by a band member.  His friends suggest that he take a holiday in the country side, so he takes a train, and he meets a pretty young girl (wearing a mini skirt and boots) on that train.  For whatever reason, I wasn't able to watch the rest of the movie.  I'm trying to find out more about it, but the title that I remember isn't helping me very much, so now I'm wondering if I remember it wrong.  I described that scene in the hope that it will jog someone else's memory.

      .........AND ALSO APPEARS TO HAVE 5 SUBPLOTS WITHIN THE MAIN FRAME OF  THE STORY , AND INVOLVES HACKED OFF LIMBS FOR THE MAD SCIENTIST BLACK MARKET......  I HAD TO WATCH IT A COUPLE OF TIMES BEFORE I REALLY LIKED IT , BECAUSE THE EDITING WAS KINDS HERKY JERKY "WHAT DOES THIS SCENE HAVE TO DO WITH THIS?"....BUT ANY MOVIE , EVEN THE ''TITANTIC" WOULD HAVE BEEN IMMINENTLY MORE WATCHABLE WITH VINCENT PRICE , PETER CUSHING AND CHRISTOPHER LEE....

      Cool. I don't think I've seen it but I can kind of picture the car thing, it does sound very familiar.

      Well worth seeing as long as it's not the sanitized TV version. It's got a fab theme song by Amen Corner too.
