The Incredible Petrified World






Deep sea divers descend to the bottom of the ocean in a diving bell that's mysteriously bigger on the inside than the outside and become trapped in a cave, I think, in this confusing film. There's stock ocean footage, stock octopus footage, aquarium footage where the film crew's lights are reflected in the aquarium glass, voiceover narration, boom shadows, finger sandwiches and John Carradine. There's also some dodgy science, stalactites and stalagmites, an underwater cave-dwelling grizzled old man in ragged clothing, a script that doesn't make much sense, and lots of scenes featuring actors walking around in an underground underwater cave. I watched The Incredible Petrified World on Youtube and it was less than incredible. Here's a trailer:
