About The Fantasy Worlds of Irwin Allen
Producer-director Irwin Allen is best known for sparking the disaster film craze of the 1970s. But as creator of a string of 1960s TV shows -- including "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea," "Lost in Space," "The Time Tunnel" and "Land of the Giants" -- Allen endeared himself to a generation of sci-fi fans. Narrated by "Lost in Space" cast members Bill Mumy and June Lockhart, this documentary provides the back story to Allen's most popular shows.
Directed by Kevin Burns, The Fantasy Worlds of Irwin Allen leans on a strong ensemble — Irwin Allen, June Lockhart, Bill Mumy — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 1995.
