(1961 aka L'ATLANTIDE aka THE LOST KINGDOM) Haya Harareet, Jean-Louis Trintignant, Georges Riviere, James Westmoreland (as Rad Fulton). This was the next to last film by cult director, Edgar G. Ulmer. This sci-fi fantasy concerns lost aviators who find the entrance to Atlantis at a nuclear blast site in the desert. They face many perils and find themselves pitted against an evil Queen, played with a pronounced sexual aura by Harareet, who is easily one of the most finely sculpted women to ever appear on film. She is a true beauty in the most classical sense. Watch for her nude bathing scene. This is a deceptively good film with many great sets and some fine visual effects. Great music score, too. Color, from 16mm.
