Buy The Power and buy Atlants: the Lost Continent

"The Power" Synopsis: Who has The Power? The Power to control minds, move objects, and murder by telekinesis? That’s what scientists at a space lab want to know when they realize they are targeted by one of their own – someone who possesses a superhuman power and a terrifying secret agenda. Producer George Pal brings the imagination and craft that turned his The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine into sci fi-classics to this eerie tale heightened by a suspenseful Miklos Rozsa score. The fine cast, led by George Hamilton and Suzanne Pleshette, includes two talents forever emblematic of paranoid post-war sci-fi/creature features: Michael Rennie (The Day the Earth Stood Still) and Richard Carlson (Creature from the Black Lagoon).

Atlantis: The Lost Continent Synopsis: Rejoice, citizens of Atlantis! Princess Antillia, lost upon uncharted seas, has been guided home by intrepid Greek fisherman Demetrios. In a strange act of Atlantean gratitude, Demetrios is cast into slavery. He will endure the macabre House of Hell. Fight for his life before a cheering arena throng in the Ordeal of Fire and Water. And rescue the princess again as they flee the realm’s volcanic doom. Welcome to Atlantis, the Lost Continent, where royal guardsmen wear uniforms that could easily be from the wardrobe of Ming the Merciless and where some unfortunate slaves are turned into bovine-headed beasts. Yes, that kind of movie: popcorn-worthy and spearheaded by legendary fantasy film producer George Pal (The War of the Worlds, The Time Machine).

Review: The Warner Archive has just released two fantastic classic sci-fi films on DVD!  The Warner Archive (www.warnerarchive.com) is infamous now for releasing fantastic vintage film and television onto DVD exclusively through their website.  Many of these features have never seen a DVD release before!  

The Power and Atlantis are fantastic vintage sci-fi films, though quite different.  The Power stars George Hamilton and is about scientists in a lab that discover one of their colleagues has secret super powers.  The film is full of great effects and dialogue, though a bit cheesy at times, it still holds up well.

Atlantis: The Lost Continent is a drastically different film.   Its the kind of movie I think you would've enjoyed seeing at the drive-in back in the day.  The entire film focuses on the mythical city of Atlantis and the fantastical battles that ensue amongst its people.

These are both great films and we highly recommend checking them out!
