Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis was another, and one of the most famous, of Sunn Classic Pictures low budget productions that was distributed using the "four wall" technique. The distributor would rent certain theaters in a territory (to retain the entire boxoffice gross) and then spend extravagant sums on saturation advertising, especially TV spots. As a result, he public would flock to these theaters to find higher than normal ticket prices. This technique worked and, despite negative critical reviews, this film reportedly grossed over $50,000,000, an extraordinary sum for the mid-1970s.

Featured review
Movie was a scam.
Ignoring the rest execrable "science" on display in this witless film, this movie was a part of a hoax. The individual who brought down pieces of the alleged Ark actually cooked them in his oven at home to "age" them. Naturally the credulous producers took him at his word.
I suppose this film is worthy for the undiscriminating, desperate Christian viewer, but all others should avoid unless a good laugh (a la "Plan 9 from Outer Space") is what you are looking for.
Of course, if you are the sort who still believes the Shroud of Turin is real, then you won't care.
This film needs to be categorized as "fiction."
Thank you.
Cheers.
