Fantasy adventure directed by Henry Levin, starring James Mason and Pat Boone. The film follows newly-knighted science professor Sir Oliver Lindenbrook (Mason) as he discovers a message left by a long-dead Icelandic scientist claiming to have discovered a means to reach the very centre of the Earth. Along with his assistant Alec McEwan (Boone), Lindenbrook sets out to find the reputed path, deep in an Icelandic volcano, and encounters the widow of a scientist recently murdered during his attempt at finding the path. As they descend into the heart of the Earth they encounter wonders beyond their imagining, but unknown to them, they are being pursued by a devious scientist determined to hoard the subterranean wonders for himself.
