Movie Description
When an earthquake triggers a giant burst of lava from the La Brea Tar Pits, sending great spews of lava all over various Los Angeles neighborhoods and causing all manner of flaming magma mayhem, dedicated Emergency Management director Mike Roark rushes to the rescue, with help from a plucky seismologist. A no-holds-barred cataclysmic extravaganza, replete with "lava bombs" bursting in air, a toned-down flirtatiousness between the city's saviors, and the straight-faced "how-will-we-stop-it?" suspense factor of the classic Hollywood disaster epics.

Industry Reviews
"...VOLCANO is sharply edited for maximum mayhem, played at top volume, and filled with every imaginable volcano-related effect this side of the lava lamp. The effects are grand and stupefying..."
New York Times - p.C1 - Stephen Holden
"...The poker-faced preposterousness of VOLCANO is exactly what's fun about it..."
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (05/02/1997)
"...VOLCANO glows with heat....A disaster picture that's tastier than usual..."
Los Angeles Times - Kenneth Turan (04/25/1997)
