Does anyone know of a movie where the earth is imperiled by a ring of fire around it? I'm trying to remember the name of this movie (I think it's from the 50's or 60's) I once saw part of on TV and have a nifty idea for a fwfr or it.

Something about a fire-ring range perhaps?

Thanks!

Wow, that's a counterintuitive title, given what I remembered. No wonder I had trouble finding it.

I still stand by my suggestion. In VOYAGE, the Van Allen belt of the atmosphere catches fire -- the sky's literally burning -- and they have to send a super-submarine down to nuke it or something [I was a grade-schooler then...]. In your flick, I think the earth starts spiraling into the sun. Anyhow, Morkeleb might be able to decide...

Oh, I'm quite sure Randall was right. I definitely remember the image of the fire in a ring around the earth, which The Day the Earth Caught Fire does not.

In fact, I've already submitted my review for Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea
