I remember when this movie first aired back in the day. I liked it then and I like it now.
Sam Groom stars as Dr. Clint Earnshaw a man confronted by a disease which has never been seen before. It does seem similar to something swept thru Chicago in the 1800's but all records have been destroyed in the great fire.
Earnshaw is approached by a man named Jeff Adams (Tom Hallick) who offers to help him find the cure. Earnshaw is taken to a facility and told that he and Jeff will travel back into time to find the cure.
They arrive in 1871 Chicago with only one day to find a doctor named Joshua Henderson (Richard Basehart) and get his medical records and figure out the cure. If they cannot find it the Great Chicago Fire will end their search in just 24 hours.
This is a pretty interesting film, at least as far as I am concerned. It moves along at a good pace and the cast handles everything very well. The ending is a little rushed, but not too much.
The rest of the cast includes Booth Coleman, Francine York, Trish Stewart, Walter Brooke, Albert Cole and Richard Webb.
