- "Catastrophe" was a documentary film released theatrically in 1978 about natural and man-made disasters from throughout history, and presented by actor William Conrad. Here is the opening title sequence showing numerous catastrophes highlighted in the film. From the Australian K-Tel Home Video VHS release of circa 1986.
I had this on vhs until the tape wore out. I was hoping the whole show was on here. I haven't watched it in a decade but it's still my favorite disaster show of all time.
This is my favorite disaster documentary as well! I have see it many times. Love William Conrad's hosting style. It covers all of the disasters that fascinate me the most!
I can see why K-Tels have such an attraction now. Man they released some crazy stuff, I love them! The opening sequence here is amazing. That dude with his introspective stance is just hilarious.
Speaking of K-Tels, picked up Meatballs 2 just yesterday for $3, original box and all. Not sure if it's a rare one but I haven't seen a copy of it for ages.
I grew up watching this. It'd freak the poor kiddies out nowadays, especially "The Danger is...we will waste away." ending.
Haha, some good observations there, Darron. I found it rather odd that the final scene shows a controlled building demolition, which is not a catastrophe at all. I have never seen a copy of "Meatballs 2" in my life. Thus I would imagine it to be very rare!
Please can't someone post a copy of this film? I miss it so much and it is out of print.
I know you posted your comment three years ago and may already be aware of it, but the whole film is currently available to view on UA-cam. This documentary is one of my all-time favorites, and I just now watched it again for the first time in a number of years, and it is still just as great to watch as in the past!
@@NYWF thank you, I will have to look for it. It has been so many years since I have seen it. I have so many great memories of when I was a kid and watching it on HBO.
@@lauismcniel Glad I could help. Hope you get to watch it soon and relive those fond childhood memories.
Isnt William Conrad Ed Woods former coworker in movies?
