CRACK IN THE WORLD 1965 (OLIVE)

Thanks to Olive, this finally is on DVD.

Dana Andrews is a scientist who attempts to tap the energy source inside the earth and his attempt causes a crack that threatens to break the earth in two.

The premise of this film is brought to realistic heights by all of the actors involved, especially Kieron Moore, as Ted Rampion, a scientist who suspects what will happen and tries his damnedest to stop it. Alexander Knox is is Sir Charles Eggerston, who actually gives permission for the project to begin in the first place and Janette Scott, one of the sexiest women to ever appear in film is Andrews long suffering wife an fellow scientist.

The scenes of mass destruction are very well done and there are some very shocking scenes such as a train attempting to cross a bridge and a scientist falling into a volcano while working on a way to try and stop the crack.

Good stuff for sci-fi film fans that finally comes to DVD via Olive. I reviewed this a long time and thought it was time to redo it. If you haven't seen this yet, please do.
