Earthquake

My mother was born in the 1960’s and recalls the most memorable part of the movie Earthquake was the theme park attraction ride at Universal Studios in Orlando, FL that was created based on the film. The ride,  Earthquake:  The Big One”, would show you a bit of the movie, then tourists would board the ride and experience a special effects simulated earthquake.   The ride was open from 1990 to 2007 when it closed to be replaced by “Disaster!…A major motion picture ride…Staring You!” which uses many of the same effects as “Earthquake:  The Big One” did.
