Watch Inferno For Free

This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Nice effects though.

Brilliant and touching

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

INFERNO is one of those early 1950s 3D movies, part of a wave which died out almost as soon as it started. This one has just been lovingly restored to 3D Blu-ray by Paramint, a small Scottish DVD production company. As I love 3D movies - particularly the older ones - I couldn't resist getting hold of it to see how it held up to other classics of the era, like the inimitable HOUSE OF WAX.It turned out to be a great purchase because INFERNO is a great little film. It's a survival epic ahead of its time, and one of the finest looking 3D movies I've watched. Thanks to the 3D effects, the desert landscapes stretch out immeasurably, the greatest depth in a 3D film I've seen. There are a few equally good "pop out of the screen" effects thrown in for good measure - particularly at the climax - and these don't disappoint either.And what of the rest of the film? Well, it works too, and crucially it would stand as a decent thriller by itself even without the 3D (which is the icing on the cake). Tough guy actor Robert Ryan is betrayed by his wife and her lover and left to die in the desert with a broken leg; much of the film chronicles his efforts to survive, so it's naturally a gripping story. But the sub-plot involving his wife is also equally enthralling, thanks to strong acting from the cast. I love how it all builds up to a very modern-feeling action climax which goes over the top in a good way. All in all a fine movie and a worthwhile addition to anybody's 3D collection.

Inferno was a great 3D film classic from the 50's, Lots of effective 3D shots of the wonderful desert locations and cliffs of Arizona, the late Dan Symmes has done almost a perfect job of restoration and 3D convergence alignment, the 3D in the 50's tended to be shot with quite a wide camera separation and so could sometimes cause crosstalk, Dan has managed to equalize most of the shots and eliminate most crosstalk problems and so we end up with a comfortable and effective viewing on my Samsung Plazma. Great to see that Panamint have distributed this classic 3D movie in the UK and I wish them success and hope that they can release more 3D films on Blu-ray 3D disk in the future. I urge all 3D buffs to support there efforts and buy this disk to encourage there future investment in 3D.

You only have to watch INFERNO for a few moments to realize it was filmed originally in 3-D, the popular fad that existed in the early '50s to draw people away from their TV sets.But here, at least, it's used to great effect with many camera shots showing things tossed at the camera obviously designed for 3-D effect. But best of all, the story is a good one involving a man's survival on the desert after being dumped there by his greedy wife (RHONDA FLEMING) and her lover (WILLIAM LUNDIGAN). Fleming looks ravishing in Technicolor but she's a cold-hearted bitch.Surprisingly, it's ROBERT RYAN who turns into a sympathetic character once his situation looks hopeless. Another twist in the casting is having Lundigan play a villain for a change.The payoff (when it comes) is effective, as the plot moves toward an action-filled climax in the cabin where Ryan has been befriended by HENRY HULL. Lundigan returns with a shotgun aiming to make sure Ryan is dead when all hell breaks loose.Tidy little thriller is worth watching, well directed for taut suspense by Roy Ward Baker. Good cinematography, even without the 3-D look, and the well choreographed fight between Lundigan and Ryan is a realistic one.

Not on anybody's play list but the Westerns Channel should pick up on it. Rhonda Fleming is so hot in this film that I would be tempted into going along with the scheme! Remade in the 70's with Arthur Hill in the Robert Ryan role. One of my all time favorites! This film is almost NEVER shown. I first saw it on T.V. in the mid-sixties. Have been searching for it ever since. Finally saw it for a second time in early 2006. I have never seen a better man vs nature film. The initially unlikeable, cantankerous millionaire, excellently portrayed by Ryan is so transformed by his experience that in the end he even loses most of his rage against his wife and her lover. He just basks in his newly won self respect.
