The Day the Earth Caught Fire Ratings & Reviews
- HalcyonSJuly 4, 2025I wasn't sure how this movie was going to go, but something with hardly any action let alone any real special effects this not only held my interest it kept me waiting at the edge of my seat. If you like classic Sci-Fi at all you have to give this film a try.
- Shamus2kJanuary 2, 2025Quality eyebrow raising sci-fi of the British variety. The blueprint for the "human caused" climate change hoax of half a century later.
