Plot
Summary: |
A crew of treasure hunters are
looking for a lost treasure of pearls on the island of Krakatoa.
It is at this time that Krakatoa begins to erupt. Eventually
the volcano erupts sending a huge tidal wave toward their ship
and the surrounding islands. |
Comments: |
A great tale of bounty hunters
at sea but the full length version of the film does tend to drag
on. The acting is great, the script is well paced and exciting.
As a matter of interest, the production company made a slight
mistake with the title as Krakatoa is actually west of
Java. |
Special
Effects: |
The special effects are quite good
and very convincing for a late sixties film and definitely more
than I expected to see. Made up mostly of miniature models and
film montages. |
