A strange little British shocker. Pre-dating The Texas Chainsaw Massacre , this concerns a lone survivor ( Hugh Armstrong ) from a community of cannibals living in the London Underground and picking off lone travellers at Russell Square tube station. When a top civil servant goes missing a cynical detective Calhoun ( Donald Pleasence ) gets on the case. Christopher Lee has a brief and not very relevant cameo.
It's very gory for its time in places but it's also very slow and lacking in any suspense.
Rachel Gurney ( as Pat Wilson )
Sex : The Man attempts to rape her
Death : Survives
Sharon has the lead female role in this one. It was her last horror role and her penultimate film.
Heather Stoney ( as WPC Marshall )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
This was Heather's only film role in a brief acting career. She has been Mrs Alan Ayckborn for the past 20 years.
