Showing great imagination on a tiny budget Zeman emulates the look of the lithographs of Verne's early editions
Audience Reviews for Vynález zkázy (The Fabulous World of Jules Verne)(A Deadly Invention)
It was a masterpiece of animation/live action created in a format called "Mystimation". The look of this film was intended to be in the same idea as the pen and ink drawings that were present in some versions of Vern's works. I loved it, and I watch it from time to time for the fond memories of a time when your imagination was the special effects of the day. Films the like of this one are gone forever and will never return. The story told by the film isn't as important as the time and place it was viewed. I hope all you Scifi movie folks get to see this treasure at least once.
