A recent discovered 8.5s radio pulsar is clearly located beyond the conventional radio pulsar death line. Here we reinvestigate the radio pulsar ``deathlines'' within the framework of two different types of the polar cap acceleration models. i.e., the vacuum gap model and the space-charge-limited flow model, with either curvature radiation or inverse Compton scattering photons as the source of the pairs. General relativistic frame-dragging is taken into account in both models. We find that the inverse Compton scattering induced space-charge-limited flow model can sustain strong pair production in some long-period pulsars, which allows PSR J2144-3933 to be radio aloud, without assuming special neutron star equation-of-state or ad hoc magnetic field configurations.
