Brace Yourself For The Biggest Catastrophe The World Has Ever Seen!

Outer space can hardly contain all the stars who round out the extraordinary cast in this spellbinding thriller about a five-mile-wide meteor on a catastrophic collision course with earth. Natalie Wood and Oscar winners Sean Connery, Karl Malden, Martin Landau and Henry Fonda shine in this "thoroughly engrossing" (The Hollywood Reporter), sci-fi special effects spectacular that rockets across the screen like a speeding comet.

A brilliant scientist, Dr. Paul Bradley (Connery) is summoned to Washington by NASA chief Harold Sherwood (Malden), who informs him that a huge meteor will smash into earth in six days. The only chance to destroy the meteor is to work with the Soviets, revealing to them top secrets. But as the clock is ticking, fragments of the meteor split off and come crashing to earth, causing enormous damage. And as avalanches and tidal waves take a devastating toll, Bradley works against all odds to eliminate the greatest threat the world has ever known.
