Viewing Notes

In my quest to view all versions of Jules Verne’s classic tale Journey to the Center of the Earth, I was fortunate to discover the Spanish Fabulous Journey to the Center of the Earth A.K.A. Where Time Began (1978) on Netflix Watch Instantly. And I gotta say that compared to some of the more recent iterations of this story I’ve seen lately, this one ain’t all that bad. Plus it has bitchin’ cover art. Despite being dubbed (originally in Spanish) it’s totally watchable with a bizarre sci-fi interlude that is never really explained. Also Ivonne Sentis is cute as a button (could be Audrey Hepburn’s cousin).
