The disaster-movie trend of the early and mid-1970s was starting to wear out its welcome when Earthquake was released in 1974. It’s another one of those enjoyably mindless all-star marathons, and the title tells you all you need to know about the plot. Charlton Heston offers his trademark brand of macho courage as the citizens of Los Angeles brace for the Big One--an earthquake that rattles the city to its crumbling foundation. It's got all the sophistication of a Love Boat episode, but the movie's momentum scores high marks (at least on the Richter scale), and the Oscar-winning sound design and special visual effects are still impressive, especially when you consider that advanced computer-graphics effects were still two decades in the future. Genevieve Bujold adds a touch of class to the all-star ensemble, and of course, what self-respecting disaster flick would be complete without a role for George Kennedy? In more ways than one, this cheesy movie rocks! (If you want to re-create the movie's original sound process known as "Sensurround," you’ll just have to crank up the bass and subwoofer on your home theater system until plaster cracks and windows shatter!) --Jeff Shannon

This motion picture was released in the USA on November 15 1974 starring Charlton Heston as Stewart Graff, Ava Gardner Remy Royce Graff, George Kennedy as Sergeant Lew Slade, and Lorne Greene as Sam Royce. The picture starts with the usual sunny day in Los Angeles California with your busy freeway and busy life style that people live in Los Angeles. Stewart Graff is working out when he's being harassed by his wife Remy. Stewart works for Remy dad Sam Royce who owns a big contractor company. ... Read More

This is one my favorite movies but Universal blew it again with the DVD transfer. They fail to realize the potential revenue that can be made from these classic films. The picture quality is pretty good for a 70's movie but the movie is still heavily edited from the original version. There are so many scenes missing I couldn't even begin to list them all. There are NO extras, not even a trailer! The DVD was so poorly authored there is not even an audio or chapter menu! The sensuuround audio track is ... Read More

Despite what others have said about this DVD, the excellent quality of the video itself makes it a "5". We do have to remember that this is an old movie, but I feel that I've just seen it as it originally was in theaters. I used a 1080p hi-def TV and a blu-ray 1080p player, and I doubt that an actual blu-ray disk would be much better! The sound is fine, too, but I did not like the "sensurround" track, as it was flat except for the scenes containing earthquake noise, in which case it rattled the walls. ... Read More
