Death Line is a 1972 British horror film, distributed as Raw Meat in the United States. The film stars Donald Pleasence as Inspector Calhoun, and was directed by the American filmmaker, Gary Sherman. The plot is based around a family who live underground and are descended from navvies who were trapped in a cave-in at the turn of the century. From their home in the uncompleted 'Museum' London Underground station (supposedly between British Museum and Holborn, although on a separate uncompleted line), the father of the family visits the neighbouring Russell Square and Holborn stations to pick off passengers for food. When the cannibal kidnaps and kills an important politician, he is hunted by a detective as well as an American student and his English girlfriend who were the last to see the victim in the tube station.
