Title: What Movie Is This?
Post by: Gerry on April 09, 2001, 04:35:44 PM
OK.  Two movies actually.

One involves some people in a boat that end up trapped in a sea where the seaweed is so thick that the boat can't move foward or back, so they have to walk across the seaweed to an island or something to escape.

The other involves some people walking along a perilous ledge above a lava flow.  It involves a dinosaur too I believe (and it's not Journey to the Center of Time.

More old things resurfacing from the id every day.  It's kinda scary actually.

First is Hammer's goofy 1968 The Lost Continent -- not the one from the '50s.

The second is probably the Irwin Allen's 1960 remake of The Lost World, although there are more than one film that covers that ground, I'd think.

Woah.  That was fast.  I'll have to check both of those out.  They sound as though they might be likely candidates.  Neither of which I have seen in recent memory.

The Lost Continent is goofy, but it does prove the old standard, that British Actors are better at this kind of story then yanks...they take it seriously no matter what, and what do ya know, they pull it off! The theme song,btw, is the second most "Lounge lizard" tune i can rember in a movie...second to that Japanese Kaiju flick who's name i can't dredge up...you know!...space chicken with deeley bobbers!...yah, that one.......

"that Japanese Kaiju flick who's name i can't dredge up...you know!...space chicken with deeley bobbers!...yah, that one......."

The X From Outer Space (1967).  My, what a festive soundtrack it had.
