Way better than 2012. I love this film!

I first seen this in 1967. Awesome music. The musical score pumped up the movie. The ending was a mind trip driven by the pounding music. Great special effect which was a lot better than many movies made in 1965.

I saw this for the first time one month after catching "Atragon" in July 1965. Talk about a high for a nine year old. I keep hoping someone will faithfully follow these classics and give them the shine with today's state of the art effects. My biggest fear is that they would be changed so much by the whims of modern directors that they would lose what made them special.

This is one of what I call my Saturday night favorites. Love the premise of obtaining limitless power. Good science gone wrong. Good musical score is the cherry on top!

Remember this movie when I was a kid , it's one of my favourite disaster movies it was ahead of its time.

I love this movie. Sci-Fi movies were so cheesy back when it came out. This one was well written and for the time, great special effects. It's a fun movie to watch and I added it to my DVD collection.

I saw this movie on TV when I was still young enough for it to really scare me. I had nightmares for weeks! The special effects were good for the time, but it's amazing to think that Star Wars came only a dozen years later with effects that still look pretty good today.

Loved this movie as a kid,it used to be on tv a lot but not for ages,can't find it anywhere apart from the trailer on you tube

Bombing the crap out of the inner earth . What could possibly go wrong ?

Movie scared me as a kid more than the wolfman,dracula,mummyetc, hated the part when the guy falls in the volcano.

Great movies like this are not made anymore...

I saw it first when I was a kid on holiday in Torquay with my dad. When we left the cinema there had been a storm and a tree had been blown down so I thought the end of the world was happening.

❤😂 WE HAVE STRUCK MAGMA! (Trumpet lick) waaa waaa waaaaaaa I used to love all these atomic renaissance 50s 60s sci fi as a child in the 80s 90s. I felt such a sense of romanticism to the scientific optimism vs traditional values and ethics. Amazing too many movies to mention. This one actually had pretty good production quality. Of course I absolutely love the B ones too😊.

What went flying off into space was a section of ocean, and a ball of magma surrounded by plasma. Trillions of tons of tons of seawater should have poured down that 20,000 square mile diameter hole, come in contact with all that magma, and the colossal pressure generated by the steam would cause a cataclysm like they were trying to avoid. That close to the breakaway they should have been killed!

@@Beamshipcaptain you're very close. If the weight of the seawater wasn't able to hold down the chunk of the earth's crust then yes the launch of the new moon would cause mile high Tsunamis that would race around the world. Then there would be secondary Tsunamis from the ocean rushing back to fill the void in the earth's crust. Once the ocean water hit that magma the resulting steam would rush up to cloud the atmosphere and cause Noah-esc rain storms world wide

I remember watching this on TV in the 1960s.

This one is a gem. All the right ingredients for a Sat afternoon in front of the tv. I would prefer to watch Crack In The World on the big screen. But the tele was how I watched this one, Day of the Triffids and 5 Million Years To Earth aka Quatermass and the Pit. 60's sci-fi disaster flicks had some of the best ideas and special effects. Does anyone feel there are similarities to MOONFALL and Crack In The World?

I loved this movie when I was a kid. Still do..

Dam good disaster film, way better than 2012. I would love to see this film remade.

John Douglas did the musical score for this film but at first I would have bet the farm it was Barry Gray. Very similar styles.

Every since I first saw this movie on TV, I felt cheated that they didn't show the interior of the hole after the chunk of the Earth was ejected. They have the FX to do it now if it was remade.

This movies clipping right along!!!!!

I loved. This movie and the intro don't make movies or intros like this anymore

I'm 64 and remember this. Hopefully, Kilauea won't be a situation where it generates a crack that circles the Pacific along the Ring of Fire and blasts off into space. Although, that would eliminate the pile of plastic trash which is in the Pacific and is currently the size of Texas.

What do you mean "we" have caused a crack?

I could never figure out what was that "whirly-gig" floating up into the atmosphere at the end of this movie. Some people seem to be commenting that it's part of the earth. Looks like ball lightening to me.

It would go into orbit but earth's reaction to a huge chunk being flung into orbit would most certainty shift the axis of this planet causing god knows what kind of climate change.

I downloaded this movie and it took me several days to get through it. I stopped and started it, and went back to it several times. Sorry, but I found it dull. And yet I wanted to finish it but at times I wanted to give up. It's a good plot but the story is bogged down with this boring romance love triangle with an old man, a young woman, and a relatively young guy. I'd only give it 3/10. Quite dull and a waste of the actors' talents.Vastly overrated.
