WARLORDS OF ATLANTIS 1977 (TUBI)

This caught be by suprise. I discovered this was running on Tubi.

I hadn't seen this classic sci-fi adventure film since the old days of HBO in 1979.

Doug McClure stars as Greg Collinson, an adventurer who has developed a diving bell capable of going to great depths. During an expidition looking for the lost city of Atlantis, the main shi is attacked by a huge octopus monster and the crew as well as the bell is taken to a mysterious world under the sea.

It is actually Atlantis and they find it being ruled by aliens who have been stranded on Earth for hundreds of years, and have been capturing people for slave labor.

Collinson and company find that they are also to be turned into slave, all but Charles Aitken (Peter Gilmore) whom the aliens consider to be highly intelligent, and therefore want him to become one with them.

There are plenty of cool monsters and lots of adventure. This is a film that is very hard to see in the fact that it has almost disappeared in the cracks of movie history.

If you enjoyed films like "At The Earth's Core", "Land That Time Forgot" and others you'llmore than enjoy this Kevin Conner directed production. The rest of the cast includes Shane Rimmer, beautiful Lea Brodie, Michael Gothard, John Ratzenberger, Cyd Charisse and Daniel Massey.

I'm glad this finally can be seen again. It's really a good little film.
