Underworld Limited Edition

£24.99

Released: 7th September 2026. From the mind of horror legend Clive Barker, director of Hellraiser and Nightbreed, comes Underworld, a chilling exploration of human transformation and the price of ambition. Beneath the city lies a secret world inhabited by mutants addicted to a terrifying new drug created by the mysterious Dr Savary (Denholm Elliott). Their only hope of salvation lies in Nicole (Nicola Cowper), forced to work in a high-class brothel by Savary but, for reasons unknown, unaffected by the drug’s mutations. When the mutants kidnap Nicole, private investigator Roy Bain (Larry Lamb) is hired by the brothel’s owner (Steven Berkoff) to bring her home. But, as he descends deeper into the subterranean labyrinth, what starts as a rescue mission soon spirals into a frantic battle for survival. Blending noir sensibilities with extreme body horror, this atmospheric thriller – released in the US as Transmutations – offers an intriguing glimpse into Barker’s early cinematic explorations of transformation and the grotesque. Now restored in vivid 4K, this Limited Edition includes both the theatrical cut and a longer, extended cut, compiled from the best known sources. 2-DISC 4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY LIMITED EDITION CONTENTS • Reversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Heather Vaughan • Collector’s booklet featuring new writing on the film by Daniel Burnett DISC 1 - UNDERWORLD (4K ULTRA HD BLU-RAY) • 4K (2160p) UHD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible) • Original lossless English 2.0 stereo audio • Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing • Audio commentary by director George Pavlou, moderated by Stephen Thrower, author of Nightmare USA • Wild Recrimination, a brand new interview with director of photography Syd Macartney • Becoming ‘Darling’, a brand new interview with actor Brian Croucher • No Limits, a brand new interview with long-term collaborator Nicholas Vince discussing his experiences working with, and the enduring legacy of, Clive Barker • Makeup Tests and Clive Barker Designs • Storyboards • US Trailer • Artwork and Stills • Image gallery, from the archives of Phil & Sarah Stokes DISC 2 - TRANSMUTATIONS (LIMITED EDITION EXCLUSIVE BLU-RAY) • High Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentation (contains standard definition inserts) • Original lossless English 2.0 stereo audio • Optional English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing
