Death Line
There's something pretty grisly going on under London in the Tube tunnels between Holborn and Russell Square. When a top civil servant becomes the latest to disappear down there Scotland Yard start to take the matter seriously. Helping them are a young couple who get nearer to the horrors underground than they would wish.

Note : Did you know that two years before The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, England made its own grotty inbred cannibal family nightmare movie? And it stars Donald Pleasence, as well giving us an opportunity to see Christopher Lee in a bowler hat? It's like Texas Chain Saw meets C.H.U.D. in the London subway, and it's honestly pretty good, if a bit simplistic. The cannibals here have more pathos and a tragic (though unlikely) backstory, and there are elements of a police procedural and a typical "authorities think young people are lying" subplot. Writer/director Gary Sherman would go on to make Dead & Buried, of course, which is a better film, but this is still very worth watching.
A young couple Patricia and Alex find a man unconscious on the London subway stairs, and the ID in his wallet suggests he's someone important. They report it to the police, but when they return, the man is nowhere to be found, and Calhoun, the police inspector assigned to the case, is more inclined to believe the couple robbed the man. However, it turns out an inbread community of people have been living in isolation underground since a cave-in in 1892 trapped a group of railway workers, and they have subsisted by cannibalism. Now there's only two left, and the male cannibal watches his pregnant mate die, then goes on a rampage, killing three subway maintenance workers. Patricia gets separated from Alex in the subway, and is kidnapped by the cannibal, who's looking for a new mate, but Alex can't convince Calhoun that the threat is real, and has to take matters into his own hands.
This transfer is pretty good, clean enough, with nice color and contrast, although, with the exception of the opening title sequence, the cinematography is pretty murky and brown most of the time, especially in the underground scenes. Original stereo track (possibly just dual mono) sounds good, the commentary track with the director and a couple of others is interesting enough.
