Blu-ray Review – Cave-In (1983)

Produced in 1979 and aired on television in 1983, "Cave-In" (a.k.a. "Cave in!" and "Cave In") is one of the final projects from producer Irwin Allen, who looked to sustain his legacy as a man of disaster cinema, putting together yet another examination of panicked people stuck in a dangerous situation, using survival time to reflect on all the mistakes and mishaps in their lives. Formula is forever to Allen, and he delivers the usual business here, with director Georg Fenady tasked with making something thrilling about a collection of strangers stuck inside a cavern for a few hours, serving up various challenges to personal safety.
