Join the adventure and danger of the original and best volcano mvie as Captain Chris Hanson (Schell) and a group of eager treasure hunters search the Indonesian waters for a sunken pearl ship. Recruiting an over-the-hill deep-sea diver, a claustrophobic inventor and some beautiful Polynesian pearl divers for good measure, Capt. Hanson’s voyage is placed in peril when he is ordered to transport 30 dangerous criminals to a nearby prison island. But that is the least of their problems. They find the wreck of the Arianna lying in waters close to the erupting volcano Krakatoa, and its violent outbursts signal a far more deadly shock to come. (Bounty Films)
