"Raw Meat"

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.

Walking In LA...

I live in what they refer to as a walkable neighborhood in Los Angeles, meaning I can get to most everything I need to on foot.

Thus it gives one a different perspective than when you travel in your car all the time.

It allows me to see things I wouldn't usually see and take in views around me with a unique perspective.

The other day I was on a mission to Home Depot and this is the view that caught my photographers eye.

It was taken from behind the driveway on the backside of HD and "Yes" you can obviously really see the Hollywood Sign from there.

Hey, on a clear day you can see forever...

TGIF!

Michael's Musings

Feels So Good Being Bad
Michael Shinafelt

"'Cause I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it

Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me" S&M, Rihanna

A messy toddler sitting next to you at a library banging on one of the public computers yelling "I werkin! Look ah me I werkin!" must be what it's like at the Oval Office

There you go, that's all

I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public, the more you know

Hump Day & Chill

Sarah Jessica Parker

Carrie Bradshaw

And Just Like That... It's over... 

Today I am going to give a Hump Day & Chill send off of sorts to And Just Like That...

"Yes" the show wasn't perfect, in fact far from it. But I did enjoy it nonetheless and it was a nice escape for forty-five minutes each week.

These characters are like family at this point to many of us after all. I do realize there were some who hate watched it, but not me. I just went with it and was content seeing these people every week that have been such a big part of pop culture and several million people's lives.

While the series finale seemed a little abrupt I am not upset with the way the show ended. I thought it was a good note to go out on.

Carrie's epilogue was perfection IMO.

"The woman realized she was not alone - she was on her own"

And Just Like That...the series came to an end.

Cool (For The Summer) Cats

Cool Cats

Another Monday another yoga class at Hollywood Forever Cemetery...

For those of you not in the know I practice yoga in Hollywood at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. It's an oasis in the middle of the city and it feels like you in a completely other world. 

Many animals are to be found on the grounds from Peacocks, Geese and Turtles to name a few.

So every time I am there I get to enjoy various living creatures. Of course the one staple every place like this has is feral cats roaming the grounds.

Here's two cool cats keeping it real cool for the summer on top of someone who has been laid to rests marker.

They must have known I was coming as they seemingly struck a pose.

Hope your summer is going well and remember no matter how cool you are you will never be as cool as the cats at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
