it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

I have absolutely never seen anything like this movie before. You have to see this movie.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

The Drake Mining Company is set to make a fortune with discovery of isotope L6 while deep cavern mining. The problem with L6 is that it is explosive with water and seeks out wet items such as people, even people on top of a lake of water...just saying. Only Keven Sorbo, now a seismologist, can save Nevada...or wherever.This is a formula disaster film, one of the lesser quality and lesser known films of prolific writer Jim Wynorski. It barely keeps you engaged.

As an Environmentalist, I appreciate the story,the lesson and the warning about man's continued meddling with Mother Nature, when we'd be better off leaving things alone.Neat concept, good special effects, and let's just hope something like this is never possible.

"Fire From Below" gives new meaning to the term 'potboiler.' This predictable 84-minute disaster feature about a mining company that exposes a vein of pure base Lithium qualifies as a below-average made-for-television feature. In this case, it was produced for the SyFy Channel. Co-directors Andrew Stevens and Jim Wynorski have concocted nothing but pure claptrap. Apparently the Lithium loves to breathe and seek out water so it takes the form of a flaming finger of swirling fire that chases people over water or in the mine cavern and burns them up. We're talking flaming cheese. No, nobody gets burned on screen so that they turn into screaming French fries. One scene shows the fire trailing after a recreational speedboat on Lost Lake hauling a woman on skis. Indeed, the fire torches her and then the boat and its occupants. As it turns out, our hero and heroine, seismologist Jake Denning (Kevin Sorbo of TV's "Hercules") and his fiancée Dr. Karen Watkins (Maeghan Albach of "Rockabilly Baby"), are vacationing in rural Lost Lake when they discover a corpse floating in a lake. Karen leans on a wooden railing that collapses. She falls into the water and a dead man rises to the surface. Meantime, the Lithium has killed everybody in the mine and is slowly killing everybody in Lost Lake, most prominently Sheriff Griffith (James Hampton of "The Longest Yard") and garage owner Bubba (Burton Gilliam of TV's "Evening Shade"). Naturally, the military shows up and a crisis meeting is organized at the Pentagon where our hero shows how combustible a Lithium battery is when torched in the water. The Army evacuates citizens in the surrounding area while our heroes plunge into the fire to confront the out-of-control science project. Suspense is virtually lacking and the fires are all generated by computer graphics. Nothing in "Fire From Below" is remotely believable. Again, this is a paycheck movie for the actors and actresses involved and nobody gives what could be called a genuine performance. They utter throwaway lines from a shallow script based on William Langlois' story and written by the two directors. I hate to start watching a movie and stop it at the half-way point, but I should have made an exception with "Fire From Below." Nobody gets naked. Nobody is turned into a flaming pizza. Nothing!

Not even worth mentioning, the stupidity isn't even funny, its just... stupid.Don't even bother with this one, its sad to see K.Sorbo in worse, and worse films.The last comment on this film says more than I can about the film itself.The concept is stupid, the acting is stupid, the plot is.. well you guess what I am about to say...Save your time to find a better film, so many out there that has a similar budget, but manages to actually 'entertain' (And not have you regret choosing this one)
