Hollow Earth Theory - Movies or Mysterious Inner World?

This post was originally about movies related to this theory, but since I recently deleted an old website of mine, I went back and re-posted a page from there that was definitely germane to the Hollow Earth concept. So, in less words, this will be a 2-part post with a combined title...

Part 1: Hollow Earth or Mysterious Inner World?


I’ve recently stumbled across a lot of “Hollow Earth” talk of late, and finally decided to read a bit more about it. After spending a little time on the subject, I was like: “Hmm… Some of that Hollow Earth stuff is interesting, even if it’s just an elaborate hoax. However, there is no doubt that civilizations can live underground, but the Hollow Earth hypothesis claims a vast amount of territory, so much that it would conflict with the very science of planetary formations, but it is still interesting, nonetheless.” Several years ago, the entire notion of there being a mysterious “Inner World” was by no means too far-fetched for me, but I think the concept has stretched over time or perhaps has become distorted into more fantastical proportions than I care to ponder.  However, like I thought prior, underground life is something that humans are very capable of.
I’m sure that certain sectors of the Government (with or without a secret society) could tell ya all about it, but they may have to kill you afterwards… Ha! Just kidding, right?

Anyway, the reason for the way I chose to title this article, is that there could very well be a mysterious Inner World, even if the Hollow Earth concept is scientifically impossible. Personally, the Hollow Earth concept is highly entertaining, makes for great science fiction stories, movies, and invokes the imagination, but is a bit too much to swallow, when looking at this subject in a semi-logical fashion.
…But before you go to smack the rationality out of my brain, please remember that I also, at the same time, think it is very possible that there is a mysterious Inner World, just not to the degree that most Hollow Earth proponents claim.

I believe in a vast network of underground tunnels, caverns, lakes, facilities, networks, etc., along with different races of beings, aliens, advanced technology, UFOs, you name it, all tucked away underneath the surface as well as certain places above it. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that during major cataclysmic events or during acts of war, the safest place to dwell at would be underground and/or under the surface.
It reminds me, although this technically wouldn’t be considered under the earth, when big dogs run into my yard that broke loose from their chain, and my outdoor cats all flee under the house via the vent holes and select openings in the foundation. It’s the same concept really, but to totally deny the possibility of an Inner World or underground civilization(s), would be to deny the intelligence of ancient civilizations and the extraterrestrial visitors, from the past.
Oh, I just spoke about extraterrestrial beings visiting this planet as a fact? Yeah, so what; sue me!

At any less than ordinary rate, I can’t help but think about the underground network that is possibly found beneath those lovely, mysterious, great pyramids in Egypt.
I also can’t help but notice, how an Inner World would haphazardly explain the underwater UFOs that have been sighted numerous times, the Bermuda Triangle mysteries, the Lost City of Atlantis (depending on your knowledge of the subject), and so on.
I’m not trying to come off as some myth-loving fanatic, but I’m also the same person who always never doubted fire-breathing, flying dragons, either. Speaking of that, didn’t they discover some insect that blew fire from their bunghole, a while back? Yeah, that is the “bombardier beetle,” for example.

Well, since it seems to be common around here to post links about everything people are reading while writing their blog posts, I just read some page about if fire-breathing dragons are possible, here: http://hauns.com/~DCQu4E5g/Fire.htm [link is no longer active]

I’m not going to the extreme and saying that George Bush along with many other humanoid figures on Earth are actually reptilian aliens that have morphed into a Homo sapien figure or anything like you often read from the web’s weirdest places, nor am I gonna say that there isn’t a planet out there inhabited with intelligent grasshopper beings standing 8 feet tall, or even attempt to lace the Hollow Earth hypothesis with the unsolved mysteries of Cryptozoology, but I’m also, at the same time, going to say that not all life necessarily has to be carbon-based, either. Dang, that was a long sentence… Ha! But do ya get my drift? Sometimes, it is better to say that you simply don’t know, as opposed to claiming to know the inner workings of the entire universe (Dang, we got enough of those people, right?).

Anyway, the point is, there is way more to life than what many people care to believe. It still amazes me today, how most of the well-off people (the ones not struggling for survival) that dwell on this beautiful planet that is located deep within a cosmos the size of all imaginations combined, that don’t even think outside of mundane thoughts, daily routines, news feeds, politics, organized religions and dogma dung, reality (fake) television shows, and textbook science that limits creativity and cognitive function. Do we really live in a brainwashed, brain-dead society, for the most part?

Oh, great… I’m getting way off subject here… What was the topic again? Oh, yeah, “Hollow Earth or Mysterious Inner World?”

Well, this leads me to a link that I’m about to provide. If you really have the time and would like to read some highly elaborate material over this subject (if you dare to do such; ha!), whether it be pure baloney or fanciful storytelling, go here:


That page even included the Admiral Richard B. Byrd’s Diary (February – March 1947), which spoke about the “Exploration flight over the North Pole – The Inner Earth – My Secret Diary.”

That particular section of the page, started with: “I must write this diary in secrecy and obscurity. It concerns my Arctic flight of the nineteenth day of February in the year of Nineteen and Forty-Seven. There comes a time when the rationality of men must fade into insignificance and one must accept the inevitability of the Truth! I am not at liberty to disclose the following documentation at this writing …perhaps it shall never see the light of public scrutiny, but I must do my duty and record here for all to read one day. In a world of greed and exploitation of certain of mankind can no longer suppress that which is truth.”

Anyway, that page was so long and covered so many areas within this subject matter, I had to get it printed off, as I will finish reading it, later on, since I’m running out of “extra” free time at the moment.
Many of you will eat up the material found on that page, hook, line, and sinker, and many of you will have lots of new fuel to ignite with criticism, as most of you will never even click or read it period; ha-ha!

So, do you believe in the Hollow Earth Hypothesis?
Or do you believe in the Inner World concept I mentioned about?
Or do you believe in neither or do you even care, to begin with?
No, this is not a poll question, as I’ll let my ‘comment field’ act as the substrate for that type of growth… Ta-Da!

Part 2: Movies Related to the Hollow Earth Theory


I was thinking earlier about something that I was once told by a conspiracy theory nut. The guy was obviously a proponent of the "Hollow Earth Theory" and whatnot, but he did bring up a valid point during his rant. First of all, if you have no idea what I'm talking about when I mention things like the "mysterious inner world" or the "hollow Earth theory," you may need to first read up about it, here: perpendicularity.org/blog/2012/07/10/hollow-earth-or-mysterious-inner-world/ [Link is no longer active since I deleted the website, but I did re-post it above this 'Part 2' section.]

It is somewhat of a fascinating subject to say the least, albeit the concept mostly thrives within the minds of sci-fi aficionados, uh, for the most part. At any feign rate of facts or fantastical notions of fictional storytelling, the concept still remains. The conspiracy nut mentioned that he found it to be very unusual that there were very few movies and books available to the public that surrounded the hollow earth/inner world theory because it wasn't allowed. Well, come to think of it, there really are very few movies that were made (for some strange reason) that related to a world inside of this planet. I don't know about the books, though, since I'm not really into reading fictional tales, etc.

Anyway, I do own one of the few movies that's related to this. It was called "At The Earth's Core." I have read before that this particular film was intended as a loose adaptation of "Journey to the Center of the Earth," by Jules Verne, although that is neither here nor there. The movie (the one I'm talking about) involved several not-so-friendly creatures and a bunch of scantily clad prehistoric-looking people along with telepathic pterodactyls that inhabited the center of Earth, and much more. It was a colorful adventure for its time, and I'd recommend it for any sci-fi buff that enjoys watching old films. If you know of any other cool books or movies that relate to this subject, feel free to share; cheers!

  1. This is such a cool freakin' subject. I've found a few books and stuff about this crazy theory, but didn't realize there were very few films within this insane genre. Now I'm on the hunt for some DVDs! I may buy that one you mentioned (At the Earth's Core) as well because it sounds like a classic flick. I must say, though, even if it is fairly cheesy I will still probably like it - mainly because I enjoy watching almost all of the old sci-fi movies. Thanks!

  2. Yeah, there are not a lot of films related to this theory, but the one I mentioned is definitely decent. If you're a science fiction aficionado, you'll like it for sure; cheers!

    P.S. - If you get bored searching for related movies from the shopping link I provided above, you may want to just cut to the chase and, from there, type into the search bar via Amazon the following: Admiral Byrd, the Hollow Earth Exploration and UFOs
