From the Blue Underground press release:

On September 30th, Blue Underground proudly presents the world premiere of the British cannibal classic Raw Meat (AKA Death Line) on 4K UHD + Blu-ray, packed with bonus content. The film is presented in a brand-new 4K restoration from the original uncensored camera negative, with Dolby Vision HDR and a new Dolby Atmos audio mix. The film will also be available on Blu-ray and DVD.

During a late-night ride on the London Underground, Patricia Wilson (Sharon Gurney, Women in Love) and her boyfriend Alex Campbell (David Ladd, Jonathan Livingston Seagull) find James Manfred, OBE (James Cossins, The Man with the Golden Gun) passed out on the steps to the Russell Square Station. When they fetch a police officer to help, the body disappears. Inspector Calhoun (Donald Pleasence, Halloween) and Detective Sergeant Rogers (Norman Rossington, A Hard Day’s Night) investigate, and it appears the disappearance is tied to the urban legend of workers trapped in a tunnel collapse when the Underground was being built. To survive deep under the streets, the workers reportedly resorted to cannibalism. Are their descendants roaming the Tube still looking for victims? 

The subterranean horror film also stars Hugh Armstrong (The Beastmaster) – in a role originally meant to be played by Marlon Brando - and Christopher Lee (Lord of the Rings). Director Gary Sherman went on to make Dead & Buried, Vice Squad, and Poltergeist III.

The special features include an audio commentary with co-writer/director Gary Sherman, producer Paul Maslansky, and assistant director Lewis More O’Ferrall; a brand new audio commentary with film historians Nathaniel Thompson and Troy Howarth; Tales From The Tube – an interview with co-writer/director Gary Sherman and executive producers Jay Kanter & Alan Ladd Jr.; From the Depths – an interview with star David Ladd and producer Paul Maslansky; Mind the Doors – an interview with star Hugh Armstrong; trailers; TV spots; radio spots; and a poster & still gallery. 

Raw Meat (AKA Death Line) is available as a Limited Edition 4K UHD + Blu-ray combo, featuring an embossed, foil-highlighted slipcover. Also available separately on Blu-ray and DVD. All three packages include the bonus features.



Raw Meat is distributed by MVD Entertainment Group.

Cannibals, Christopher Lee, and Donald Pleasence?  On a brand new 4K transfer?  This is a movie I've never seen, but it sounds like fascinating.  The package includes some nice extras as well.
