A Journey to the Center of the Earth

Based on the original story by Jules Verne

Professor Lindenbrock and his friend Alex set out to prove life can exist at the center of the earth. The instructions on a mysterious parchment lead them from Iceland to the crater of a volcano. Professor Kippner, Lindenbrock's rival, announces to the Hamburg Scientific Society that the expedition has been killed in a rock slide. The group survives, but every step of their journey is filled with danger. They overcome electrical storms, cross a phosphorescent sea, escape from prehistoric animals, and even battle swamp monsters. Finally, they find a dinosaur egg, proof that life exists at the earth's core.

A volcanic eruption whirls them out of the ground. They land on Mount Stromboli. Following the birth of a dinosaur, hatched from the egg Lindenbrock found, Professor Kippner is put to shame and Lindenbrock is triumphant.
