At the Earth's Core (1976)
Country: GB
Technical: col 90m
Director: Kevin Connor
Cast: Doug McClure, Peter Cushing, Caroline Munro
Synopsis:
A Victorian scientist designs and builds a drilling machine for investigating the Earth's mantle, but a test takes him and his assistant through to the core, where telepathic dinosaur-like birds terrorize a primitive human subspecies.
Review:
Another Edgar Rice Burroughs novel for the Land that Time Forgot team, and they don't get much more preposterous than this one. Still, it is so much fun and well paced that it is impossible not to remember with affection. Modern audiences will, of necessity, be more critical.
