4.0 out of 5 stars Another "Chiller Theater" gem released on DVD, May 22, 2010
By
David Alianiello "Armadillo" (Reynoldsburg, OH) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Crack in the World (DVD) Every Saturday night @ 11:30, I'd settle down on the couch for 3+ hours of horror and/or sci-fi on TV courtesy of Pittsburgh, Pa's "Chiller Theater" hosted by "Chilly Billy" Cardille. Among my many favorites was "Crack in the World," about a scientist who, through underground testing of some sort, creates a mammoth fissure in the earth that keeps getting bigger and bigger, threatening to tear the earth apart. I've always loved this movie, especially the uncompromising ending, and I'm happy to see it finally being released in DVD. Check it out.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sure the science is outdated, but it's a fun movie nonetheless., July 25, 2010
By
Teresa E. Tutt "Meresa" (Houston, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crack in the World (DVD) Interesting story about a dying scientist who plans to tap the geothermal energy beneath the Earth's crust, with dire consequences. Andrews, Scott and Moore, as well as Alexander Knox, all give excellent performances. Special effects are superb and very believable. I remember seeing this on TV when I was little, and it scared me to DEATH. Seeing it again as an adult, it is not quite as scary, but is still fast-paced and entertaining.
While the science is now dated, thanks to the discovery of plate tectonics (the Earth's crust is divided into may separate "plates", and therefore already has many "cracks"), the story is still entertaining. The interaction between Dr. Sorenson (Andrews), an aging scientist trying for one last victory; his young wife Maggie (Scott), a scientist in her own right; and Dr. Rampion (Moore), the project's geologist and an old flame of Maggie's to boot; works very well, even if it is a bit formulaic.
All in all it is a fun movie, and definitely worth the time to see it. Especially now that it is finally being released on DVD in its original 1.85:1 widescreen format. A worthy addition to any classic sci-fi film collection.
(PS: *I* wrote that summary listed on the back cover when I was in college! They just added a few extra words. Don't believe me? Look it up on IMDB!!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Crack in the World....Excellent, July 26, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Crack in the World (DVD) I too am a great fan of this movie. I spent years looking for it, and about 3 months ago, I found a very watchable version at a site when I Googled it. The disc only cost $10....but. About half way through, down in the lower right hand corner the symbol "AMC" popped up and I realized that it was just a good copy made from the American Movie Classic channel.
This version that is now being released should be far superior....and I look forward to it.
If you have not seen this movie, by all means give it a try. There is not a single wasted minute in the whole film. Excellent!
