        A team of scientists working to raise a sunken Russian nuclear submarine on an ocean platform off the coast of Miami, Florida, unearth an ancient Atlantean relic from the sea floor and bring in an expert to make some sense of it. But while attempting to raise the sub, radioactive leakage from its missles triggers the re-emergence of Atlantis, and the resulting tidal wave destroys the platform and leaves only a small group of survivors. Rescued by two Vietnamvets-turned-heavies who are out relaxing after their latest job, their boat eventually runs aground on a Carribean island nearby where, upon going ashore, it is discovered that everything has been destroyed and everybody killed. The culprits, a vicious group of well-armed raiders, and their leader, Crystal Skull, are descendants of Atlantis' original race who set about reclaiming the world and adding the survivors to the list of victims as they struggle to stay alive and defeat the raiders and send Atlantis back to the ocean floor.

This is a very bad film with high camp value. The soundtrack is disco from the era, complete with white suits and pants. The plot has holes big enough to drive a truck through. A sunken Russian sub is being raised from 5000 feet with a secret US platform off the coast of Miami. The radiation from the missiles cause the domed island of Atlantis to rise, but they can't read their own writings. They send out a group that looks like it is from Mad Max who kill nearly everyone on a nearby island. Their goal is world dominance, once they figure out how to do it.

The models used for special effects are old Japanese bad. The dialogue was bad. One guy was a Muslim, but admittedly not a very good one. Unless one plans on a bad MST movie festival, this is on the avoid list.
