Almost 90 years later this sci-fi classic still packs a punch. Strange events in Earth's atmosphere cause monstrous storms and tidal waves that overrun the Earth. The destruction of New York City is one of the most memorable scenes in science fiction history. Blackmer and Shannon are survivors who try to crawl their way back from oblivion. An excellent film! NOTE: In previous video releases of Deluge, the picture image was squeezed slightly toward the middle, resulting in tall, skinny characters (very noticeable on Samuel S. Hinds!); however, we have corrected this and also restored the original music to the opening titles.
