Unknown World (1951)
Unknown World (1951) is an independent, science fiction, adventure film, directed by Terry O. Morse and inspired by Jules Verne’s novel Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864). Dr. Jeremiah Morley (Victor Kilian) is concerned about an imminent nuclear war. He organizes an expedition of scientists and has them use an atomic-powered machine, capable of drilling through earth and stone, known as the Cyclotram, to find an underground environment where people could escape from nuclear obliteration. The expedition, consisting of Jim Bannon, Marilyn Nash, Otto Waldis, Tom Handley and Dick Cogan begins, after government funding has fallen through and they are bailed out at the last minute with private financing from a newspaper heir Bruce Kellogg, who insists on going with them as a lark. Romantic rivalry, sterile rabbits and volcanoes are only some of the excitement of this underground adventure.
