Product Description
Description
Every city has its secrets - but who could imagine how many linger below ground, sometimes for thousands of years? Secret passageways, combat tunnels, buried palaces, Mafia escape routes and ammunition depots are just a few of the subterranean surprises you'll discover in CITIES OF THE UNDERWORLD: THE COMPLETE SEASON THREE, a fascinating look beneath the surface of some of the world's major cities.
Ever wonder how Las Vegas casinos keep their cash safe? Or where Roman gladiators learned to fight? How about what's beneath Egypt's first pyramid or San Francisco's scenic hills? Host Don Wildman returns once again to answer these questions and explore other buried secrets from London to Sicily, Okinawa and Ethiopia. Part history buff, part urban explorer, Don uses state of the art surveillance equipment to help investigate places often known only to archeologists and local residents. Walk in the footsteps of history but be careful - it's dark and dangerous down there!

Welcome to the Underworld,
By Jonathan T. "True Crime Investigator" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cities of the Underworld S3 (DVD)
I have a lot of documentary on DVD. From Unsolved Mysteries to documentaries about True Crimes I have a big collection of DVD about History, True Crimes and The Unexplained. Cities of the Underworld is one of my all-time favorite documentary series, and the Third ( and last ) season of the show is by far the best and most interesting.The list of Country featured in this third season is really impressing: Japan, The U.K., The U.S. (Las Vegas, Los Angeles, San Francisco), Belgium, Egypt, Turkey, Australia and many more are featured in this beautiful documentary in 13 episodes. The episodes of Season 3 are: # DISC ONE: City of Blood(London) / Tunnels of Hell(Okinawa Japan) / Real Mafia Underground(Sicily) / Secret Sin City(Las Vegas) # DISC TWO: Hitler's Trenches(Belgium) / Barbarians' Lair(Netherland) / Land of Manson(Los Angeles) # DISC THREE: Gladiators: Blood Sport(Rome) / Secret Holy Land(Ethiopia) / Under the Rock(San Francisco) # DISC FOUR: Tomb of the Lost Mummies(Egypt) / Gods of War(Turkey) / Alcatraz Down Under(Sydney) Each episode is 45 minutes long, full of historical pictures/facts, the footage are simply phenomenal. You'll learn a lot of things just by watching this show, each episode is packed with a lot of informations about the History behind the featured city, from World War 2 to Jack The Ripper, from The Dark Ages to Alcatraz. The host is great, he's always really into it and you feel he really cares about the investigations. If you are a sucker for History then this serie will be one of your favorites too. Enjoy the Underworld !!

Very entertaining,

This review is from: Cities of the Underworld S3 (DVD)
I happened upon this series by chance, and have become rather a fan! Wildman is very enthusiastic as a host and it's an unusual approach to learning about the history of different places. This is fun to watch and more entertaining than many history programs that simply list facts with low-budget re-enactments.

This review is from: Cities of the Underworld S3 (DVD)
We have gotten the first two seasons through Net Flicks and decided to buy this one as it was offered by a vendor for very little. We have been enjoying them completely. Much of my library is filled with documentaries and this was a welcome addition. It is so amazing how cities are rebuilt on top of the old so often to create these underground networks in some of the segments. Also amazing are the segments that show how people have dug into the ground for sanctuary through out history and the natural layouts created by elements in time. He does get a little dramatic at times, but it's OK.
