Kevin Connor's 1976 adventure flick arrives on Blu-ray early next year.
In an early announcement to retailers, Kino/Scorpion Releasing is preparing 'At the Earth's Core' for Blu-ray on January 13.
Murderous monsters, scantily clad prehistoric playmates and telepathic pterodactyls inhabit the center of our world in this "colorful fantasy-adventure" (Leonard Maltin) about a manned "drill-craft" boring its way to the center of the Earth! Starring sci-fi superstars Doug McClure, Peter Cushing and Caroline Munro, this subterranean chiller is the most "endearingly whimsical" (Los Angeles Times) entertainment on - or under - the planet's surface!
There's more than lava at the Earth's core. There's also Pellucidar: an underground empire where gargantuan pterodactyls torture and enslave all humanoids - including the lovely Dia (Munro). But all that could change when a surface-dwelling scientist (Cushing) and an American businessman (McClure) drive their powerful "Iron Mole" straight into Pellucidar...stirring up a great deal more than dirt, rocks and lava!
Specs haven't been revealed yet, but supplements include: Reversible cover, Brand New on camera interview with star Caroline Munro, Brand New on camera with Director Kevin Connor, Audio commentary with Kevin Connor, and Original Trailer.
Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is still undetermined at this time.
