Death Line (1972) Raw Meat [w/Commentary]

For generations they've lingered beneath the streets of London. But now their last survivor has emerged, driven by a desperate hunger for human flesh! Donald Pleasence stars in this daring horror classic that dishes out heart-stopping jolts and hair-raising thrills! When a prominent politician and a beautiful young woman vanish inside a London subway station, Scotland Yard's Inspector Calhoun (Pleasence) investigates and makes a horrifying discovery. Not only did a group of 19th-century tunnel workers survive a cave-in, but they lived for years in a secret underground enclave by consuming the flesh of their own dead. Now the lone descendant of this grisly tribe has surfaced, prowling the streets of London for fresh victims… and a new mate.



Commentary track:
- In this brand new audio commentary, co-writer/director Gary Sherman, producer Paul Maslansky, and assistant director Lewis More O'Ferrall discuss in great how the original idea for Death Line/Raw Meat came to exist, the shooting of different parts of the film at specific locations (there is a great story about a representative from London Transport who was supposed to monitor the work), Donald Pleasence's terrific sense of humor and how his presence instantly convinced a lot of other actors to join the project, the notorious long tracking shot, the new remaster of the film that was used for the Blu-ray release, the cutting of the film, etc. The commentary was recorded exclusively for Blue Underground.
