Vynález zkázy (A Deadly Invention)
At the end of the 19th century, the inventor Professor Roch and his assistant Hart develop an explosive strong enough to replace the energy to be had from oil and coal. The plot involves the rich villain Artigas, who seeks to acquire the substance, a Nautilus-type submarine, a deserted volcanic island harbouring a pirate city built in a crater, a hidden lake with a super sophisticated laboratory on the shore, a rocket-firing cannon.
