When Time Ran Out (1980)

Enough stars to light five marquees. Enough subplots of passion, power and greed to fill 10 movies. Plus fiery special effects galore. From The Poseidon Adventure and The Towering Inferno producer Irwin Allen, and continuing that spectacular and devastating moviemaking tradition, comes When Time Ran Out… A South Pacific island’s dormant volcano unexpectedly erupts in fury. Among those imperiled by the Carl Foreman/Stirling Silliphant script are wildcat oil driller Paul Newman, hotel baron William Holden and Jacqueline Bisset as a PR executive who must choose between them. Which familiar faces will survive when there’s no such thing as safe ground? Watch – and watch out – for yourself. As the lava flows, so also flows rare and rousing screen excitement!
