One of the great British horror films, Death Line is a classic example of what Hellraiser director Clive Barker calls 'embracing the monstrous'. The film's basic premise is a gruesome one: following a cave-in during the construction of an underground ...read the complete Death Line movie review at Time Out

Beneath the streets of London, in a long-forgotten section of the underground subway system, a creature lurks. He is the sole remaining offspring of a male and female construction crew who were buried by a cave-in at the end of the nineteenth century! ...

I thought that this movie delivered its' thrills and chills it had intended. The acting was very good and believable and the story was a different one that most horror movies. Especially one that involved the London subways. This movie is a must have for ...

This movie is unbelievably scary. The scariest parts are the tremendous amount of gruesome detail of the cannibal's underground lair. One scene I like to refer to as the "waterdrop" scene, will haunt you for a long time (or at least make you nauseated). ...

I have no particular interest in 'genre' movies as a rule - and horror movies least of all. But this is different.
'Death Line/Raw Meat' is a powerful and sometimes moving film whose humane vision is heightened by its treatment of the 'monster' as a ...

I stumbled over "Raw Meat," a.k.a "Death Line," quite by accident during a recent excursion aimed at discovering new to me horror movies. I amazingly had never heard of it before, surprising considering the film contains one of Donald ...

1973's RAW MEAT (a.k.a. DEATH LINE) is the story of an aphasic brute, purported to be the progeny of workers accidentally trapped underground in 1892, who stalks the London subways after hours in search of other humans. But what he seeks is not ...
