Oh my word, what happened to Michael Ironside's career that he agreed to be in THIS production?
A group of modern day tunnel diggers in New York discover a budding volcano under the city. With clues taken pretty much straight from DANTE'S PEAK and VOLCANO, our intrepid crew, with the help of Alexandra "PIRANHA" Paul (yes, the L-T from "Baywatch") piece together What Is Really Happening (tm) to the disdain of government officials.
Paul is a geologist (I think) who is also the ex-wife of one of the tunnel diggers. Yep, that happens every day.
A tunnel digger in NYC finds a volcano and the geologist sent to investigate is his ex. Oh, and the FBI thinks the 'unexplained happenings' are terrorism.
You want to dig your eyes out with jagged igneous rocks formed from cooled lava? This one has just about everything a b-fan could wish - mad scientist (Ironside), corporate greed, overly suspicious FBI agents, super cool tunnel diggers and looped special effects. Cap it off with reunited ex-lovers who come to realize that it takes a volcano in the city to heat things back up.
