I've been watching some old episodes of various incarnations of TO TELL
THE TRUTH if they have an interesting guest. Like Chuck Norris when
he was a baby. They had a special effects guy from the THE TOWERING
INFERNO, which made me realize I had never seen that movie except
bits and pieces here an d there.

 

I'm not sure if I've ever seen it before either.

 

Well, at least now I've seen it. I recently watched an even worse Irwin
Allen Paul Newman movie WHEN TIME RAN OUT.

 

I don't think I've seen this before.

 

I tagged you on the Facebook with the information for an upcoming 4K disc
of EARTHQUAKE

 

I do sometimes blind buy movies, but this is not one I've ever had much
interest in.

 
Earthquake! In Sensurround!
 
As a kid, I saw this in theater with the family; I've never bothered
to re-watch on tv. I did not see The Towering Inferno (by the way, it's
adapted from two similar novels) in theater and I've seen it once on tv.
 
I am not a big fan of Irwin Allen disaster movies like The Towering Inferno
but they typically had John Williams scores, so that's something. Irwin
Allen had no credit on Earthquake. John Williams was the composer on
Earthquake.
