Summary: Absolutely awful adventure film.
Review: Unbelievably cheesy adventure film stars Treat Williams as an explorer searching for a missing man, which eventually leads him to another world underground. Potentially enjoyable miniseries features a handful of awe-inspiring scenes, but is sunk by second-rate direction, terrible acting (Even from the typically reliable Williams) and writing, horrendous special effects, a grating musical score, and an uninteresting main conflict. You know you're in trouble when the opening fistfight is as badly choreographed as a 70's chop-socky flick!

Summary: Humor
Review: Well, everyone is moaning and groaning about this video, they are missing the point, ie, the whole damn thing is *supposed* to be tongue-in-cheek. It was lamely done on purpose, methinks. All those silly but funny and fantasy-like special effects, had a certain affectionate quality to them. I thought it was funny and enjoyable and laughed my arse off. For the purists with their snobby noses up in the air - lighten up!

Summary: You'll Pity Everyone Involved in The Making of This Movie
Review: What the heck? Why has Treat Williams been making such lousy movies? And George Miller? Is this the same George Miller who made the Mad Max movies? I can't believe that the man who gave us "The Road Warrior" made this embarrassing movie, too. It seems to be true, though....

This is a harmless enough movie, but prone to sentimentality, and very predictable plot contrivances. The villains are a breed of bipedal reptiles with huge claws and frightening teeth who, when they jump our heroes, merely jump them and try to wrestle them to the ground...they don't bite. They don't slash. They wrestle. At one point, Treat Williams appears to kick off the "head" of one of these beasts...or to knock off the headpiece of the costume. (You don't see more than a few of these creatures at once, although we are to believe there is a large society of them...clearly, the producer did not have an adequate costume budget!)

I like camp, and there is a certain campy element to this movie--intentional, I hope. The subterranean tribe of humans who take our heroes, for instance, in are made up of brutish, hairy, grunting men, and utter babes in two-piece bikinis. They have wonderful midriffs. And they are not the least bit sexually bashful. What a break for our travellers! If this is deliberate camp, it's played too straight really to work.

I dunno...rent it for the kids, I guess. But don't incur any late fees with this one. You'll be sorry.

Summary: How could they make such a bad movie!
Review: Whoever directed this movie should find a new career. It is terrible. I don't understand why the orginal with Pat Boone is not on DVD. It does deserve 5 stars.

Rating: 1 stars

Review: Why can't we get the James Mason - Pat Boone version?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Where it the original?
Review: Why can't we have the original version with James Mason and Pat Boone? It is one of may all-time favorite movies. This one doesn't do much for me.
