1981'due south "Goliath Awaits" was a huge ratings winner for Operation Prime Time, enabling independent UHF stations the chance to compete with the 'Big Three' - ABC, CBS, NBC - just at lower ad rates that benefited anybody but the networks, in those early on days before cable really took off. A highly improbable scenario is made believable by a strong bandage of familiar faces, but nominal pb Marking Harmon is often as well shrill to be effective. The body of water liner Goliath is sunk by German torpedoes in 1939, yet the 337 people found alive more than 40 years subsequently survived due to the ingenuity of first officer John McKenzie (Christopher Lee), rightfully revered as their leader and captain ever since. A rescue team of four (Mark Harmon, Robert Forster, Alex String, John Ratzenberger) venture inside to offer their solution to the inevitable plummet of this insulated beingness, only one month left earlier the fuel supply runs out for proficient. We take a number of fine character vignettes, in particular John Carradine (veteran of OPT's 1979 miniseries THE SEEKERS) equally Ronald Bentley, famed swashbuckling moving picture hero, in perhaps a nod to one of his dearest friends, the late Errol Flynn. Equally one of the original survivors from the long agone sinking, he has spent the time educating the young well-nigh his life experiences, enjoying the one movie of his that has survived the years, wanting to be remembered as the virile young actor he once was, slap-up with activeness, less so with dialogue. Notwithstanding, information technology is Christopher Lee who stands out every bit the ambiguous McKenzie, who resists whatsoever endeavor at rescue, knowing that his days as accented ruler were jump to end sooner or subsequently, his mysterious associate Dan Wesker (Frank Gorshin) a cocky appointed 'Angel of Expiry,' dispensing with people unable to work or feed themselves. Originally circulate in 2 parts at over iii hours-plus, it's never boring and makes good use of stock footage, thanks to the editing skills of managing director Kevin Connor, who had previously worked with Lee and Ratzenberger on the 1979 "Arabian Take a chance." Not all our questions are answered, and the climax is unfortunately drawn out besides long to sustain the tension, but overall a laudable attempt that stayed with viewers over the decades since, much similar the occupants beneath the bounding main.
