The Deadly Invention

Vynález zkázy / Karel Zeman / Czechoslovakia 1958 / 81 min. / HD file
After the phenomenal success of A Journey to the Beginning of Time, Karel Zeman devoted himself to his long-cherished dream of bringing to life his beloved illustrations of Verne books. And so indeed it happened. The world of ancient boyhood dreams with flying machines and thousands of leagues under the sea became alive as never before.
