The Island at the Top of the World (1974)
An American archaeologist (David Hartman) joins a rich English businessman, an eccentric French inventor, and an Eskimo trapper (Mako, from Rising Sun), on an awe-inspiring expedition to the Arctic. They're looking for a missing son, but they discover a world forgotten by time - a world of 10th-century Vikings, erupting volcanoes, and the legendary whales' graveyard!
The ISLAND AT THE TOP OF THE WORLD is in the grand fantasy adventure tradition of Jules Verne and H.G. Wells, with all the spectacle and beauty, romance and comedy that make the Disney films such timeless classics, and so appealing to all audiences.

Great movie, with real vikings. A few things do not apply today but overall a very good oldie.

Interesting film of it's genre and time. Much in the vane of HG Wells stories. Childhood reminisences. Reminded of good special effects that were painted and blue screened could be before they became digital.

This is a classic Disney TV Movie. Altough the effects are a little unrealistic, its well worth watching. A great kids movie.
