Subway Riders

Subway Riders (also known as Os Viajantes da Noite) is a 1981 American No Wave mock-thriller film directed by Amos Poe.

It stars Robbie Coltrane, Susan Tyrrell, Charlene Kaleina, Cookie Mueller, and John Lurie.

[3][4] Screen appearances are also made by Lydia Lunch, Glenn O'Brien, Tony Shafrazi, Tom Wright and Lance Loud.

Shot on location in hauntingly grimy New York City, Subway Riders is a faux detective drama that chronicles a string of murders committed by a screen writer/saxophone player named Anthony (played by both Amos Poe and John Lurie) as he moved through the city meeting a variety of odd underworld characters, seducing them with his sax music, shooting them dead, and hiding out in the all night New York City Subway.

Along the way Anthony meets an assortment of no wave personalities, including Cookie Mueller as the upstairs sax-hating prostitute Penelope Trasher.
