And they have that sinking feeling. A monstrous tidal wave whips across the Mediterranean, flipping the S.S. Poseidon over like a child s toy and beginning the survivors frantic struggles to reach safety in an upside-down world. But The Poseidon Adventure was only part of the thrilling story. You have to go Beyond the Poseidon Adventure to complete the white-knuckle suspense! Michael Caine and two-time Academy Award winner Sally Field head an all-star cast caught in the flaming corridors and bursting bulwarks of the crippled liner. News of the Poseidon disaster brings tug skipper Caine, first mate Karl Malden and passenger Field to the wreckage, hoping for salvage rights. They desend into the hull of the Poseidon and discover a few people ( stars Shirley Jones, Jack Warden, Slim Pickens, Peter Boyle, Shirley Knight, Angela Cartwright and others) who have miraculously cheated death. Caine finds a fortune in the ship s safe. But it may not be worth the price he must pay to get back out. Caine, his crew and the survivors fight not only explosions, searing oil fires and the ocean crashing through the collapsing ship, but armed and relentless human foes as well. Another group of adventurers led by the mysterious Dr. Svevo (Telly Savalas) had boarded the Poseidon. Svevo wants the liner s priceless cargo of plutonium – and is determined that only he will survive. Producer-director Irwin Aleen (whose The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno and The Swarm established him as Hollywood s master of disaster) again creates a thrill-upon-thrill cinematic experience. And this time he tops himself in mind-boggling, breathtakeing special effects. It took a solid year to construct the intricate sets – and only moments for their sudden spectacular destruction. Said Caine after filming was completed: "I can only hope the audience is as frightened by the fires and seawater on screen as we were on the set." Caine shouldn t worry. You too will have that sinking feeling. Beyond the Poseidon Adventure is beyond anything you ve ever experienced on the screen!
