EARTHQUAKE 1974 (UNIVERSAL)

A great disaster movie!

An all star cast including Charlton Heston, Ava Gardner, Lorene Green and many other fight for survival amid a huge quake that hits the LA area and destroys it.

The special effects are top notch and the use of "Surroundsound" actually has theaters shaking as the quake played out in the film. I remember it well. The movie was a huge money maker and is one I will never forget seeing for the first time.

The cast is rounded out by Lloyd Nolan, Victoria Principle, Richard Roundtree, George Kennedy, Genevieve Bujold, Marjoe Gortner, Barry Sullivan and Walter Matthau. Recommended for fans of disaster dramas.
