Thanks for the trailer. Saw this as a kid in theatre. Entertaining even if not true to the authors line. I did not see the 1928 Hollyweird version. I was shopping around for the new Blueray Release of this 1961 Harryhousen fest. I did not especially care for the later version with Captain Picard and Chino.
Oh my gosh I have been looking for this movie! I saw this way back when I was like 7 or 8 years old cause my dad (tried to) raise my sister and I on music and classic movies from the 60s and 70s and some of it stuck ie this movie being one I am 23 years old now and all I remembered from this movie was captain Nemo (I didn't remember his name but I remembered his face) and the bee scene that was the only few characteristics of this movie I had to go off of. I see the movie is on YT I will see it!
MAN FUCK THIS MOVIE ...FUCK THIS CRAP ,IT DOESN`T RESPECT THE BOOK !!! THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITES BOOKS AND LOOK HOW IT GETS BUTCHERED ,WITH FUCKING GIANT BEES AND CRABS. I PISS ON THIS STUPID MOVIE
A very cool story, and quite possibly true, for you see, capt. Nemo is, in fact, Da Vinci, and still alive, for I am listening to him play right now. Sweet song about missing the nautilus. Think the Germans got ahold of it after the malestrom, sans the box of pi what powered it. He would like it very much to have it back. In some verses he seems to have sworn off the submarines, but he's easy, like his twin, Jesus. Oh, ye of little faith!
This type of film had made me love fantastic and science fiction literati .
I have seen for the first time this film , when I was a child , at the beginning 1980 years on a French TV channel . Since , I have often seen this film , with the same pleasure than the first time .
Since a long time , I have thought that this island have really existed , until notice , that it was imaginary . Later , I have found my mysterious island : ICELAND .
Um... doesn't anybody else feel that this movie has almost nothing to do with the book? Giant creatures? A female? What the hell is going on here? The only part of this trailer that looks faithful to the book is the beginning balloon ride and the volcanic end.
Good Lord. The grandady of sci-fi fantasy Ray Harryhoused-Charles Schneer/Columbia Pictures, science-fiction/adventure powerhouse! Gotta get it in Blue Ray, but the DVD looks incredible on my 50-inch plasma, and Bernard Hermann's stirring score sounds lush and emotional on my 375-watt SONY home-theatre 6.1 Dolby-Digital sound. A popcorn, a soda, and its 2-hours of FUN!
THE LAND THAT TIME FORGOT (1975) Amicus Pictures, Exec. producer John Dark, Creature-SFX by Roger Dicken (ALIEN-1979). That was way down under at the South Pole, in the land of Caprona. Great flich, you can download it in HD widescreen.
Women in the Mysterious Island? Where is Yup? And Ayrton? Preshistoric animals?? It looks like some postmodern version of Verne great book. I would prefer more accurate adaptation of this classic book. Why the directors had (almost) always changed something or added something? Captain Grant´s Children, Mysterious island and 20.000 Leagues Under Sea would be a wonderful movie trilogy - if done exactly as written in the books, with good acting and directing. I wonder why it wasn´t made yet??
Films are generally changed due to plot difficulties encountered while adapting to the screen. Charles Schneer and Ray Harryhausen are legendary in their screen collaborations; "Mysterious Island" stands as one of their great cinematic accomplishments! Like it or not, there is a whole cult following behind the masterworks of stop-motion animation KING, Ray Harryhausen! All told, this film version is fantastic and remains a testament to Harryhausen's genius craftsmanship!
i love this movie ive watched it so many times its a classic, but the trailer fogot 2 actors who are also in the film. Dan Jackson (neb) percy herbert (pencroft)
This was a good 'B' movie and the special effects were pretty good for the time. Much better than most movies today actually who rely almost totally on special effects or violence with no story whatsoever.
I first saw this film on WGN-TV in Chicago's "Family Classics" in the 1960's and enjoy it today as much as I did back then. The prehistoric bird scene was removed for TV probably because it was considered too graphic for children. The story line and musical score are outstanding. Considering today's modern computerized special effects, it puzzles me as to why no major motion picture studio has remade this film for the movie theaters. It would surely be a box office success.
This Movie is my first memory, Saw it for the first time in years last week and i still love it all these years later. Thank you so much for posting, 5 stars
that was actually a tasmanian giant crab located in the deep south pacific ocean located just off the great barrier reef were the continental shelf drops off the continent of australia. It grow's to about 10 feet long from claw to claw> and weighs in excess of 35 pounds ! they used one here (no it isnt cooked they are red naturally) and blew it up even larger to make this scary movie from 1961. Actually a good job for way back then 47 years ago.
You sad barstard. Do you really have nothing better to do than then throw a hissy fit about about me making a joke about "mysterious island". Go wank in your own filth u prick.
@heine71 I take it you are from Chicago. So am I. I, too, fondly remember when Frazier Thomas hosted that show on Sunday afternoons. BTW: I believe the movie is on DVD.
ALL Verne movies are better than his realistic sci-fi novels. They are shorter, more to the point, better endings, and, THIS one, had fantastic music.
great! i first saw this on THE ATV SATURDAY MORNING PICTURE SHOW on ATV in the midlands(UK) during the 1970s. it was so exciting-a classic adventure. thanks for posting.
